Creating & Managing Locations

Define locations to match your physical warehouse structure. You can create locations at various levels and organize them in a hierarchy.

• Bins: Smallest unit, e.g., A-01-02-03
• Shelves: Groups of bins, e.g., Shelf A1
• Zones: Larger areas, e.g., Zone A, Receiving, Staging
• Location Types: Assign types to control behavior (e.g., receiving vs. storage vs. shipping)

Location Hierarchy

Organize locations in a parent-child hierarchy (e.g., Zone → Aisle → Shelf → Bin). This makes it easier to navigate and filter inventory by area.

Scanning Location Barcodes

Each location can have a barcode. Use a scanner or mobile device to scan location barcodes when performing putaway, picking, or cycle counts. This reduces errors and speeds up operations.

Get Inventory at a Location

View all inventory stored at a specific location. Use this to verify contents, plan picks, or audit a bin during cycle counting.
