Warehouses

Use this form to view and maintain information related to all warehouses used in the system. This information, among other things, can be included on purchase orders and various reports.

When you first set up your system, the installation process automatically creates a default warehouse called MAIN. You can use this form to add records for other warehouses in your system.

After warehouses are added using this form, you can assign locations for inventory within them, using the Item Stockroom Locations form.

If values are entered for fields on the EU VAT tab, they become the default values when a transfer order is created. These fields are used in European Union (EU) SSD reporting.

Note: When MRP or APS allocate inventory to a demand, they consider the combined total of all inventory at all warehouses (at a given site) in which the Dedicated Inventory field is not selected on this form. Neither planning mode allocates inventory from any specific warehouse.

To see a list of all the inventory maintained at a particular warehouse, first select the warehouse for which you want to see the list, and then access the Where Used report from the Actions menu.
