A warehouse is defined by a link between three six locations:
- The Location Stock field shows the place of products available for delivery to a customer directly from this warehouse. Availability is given by all the products in that location and any child locations.
- The Location Input field shows where ordered products are received from a supplier in that warehouse. It can be the same as the stock location if, for example, you want to do a quality control operation on your incoming raw materials.
- The Location Output field (called
Output
in the demonstration database) is designed as a buffer zone in which you store all the items that have been picked, but not yet delivered to a customer. You are strongly advised not to put this location within the stock hierarchy but instead at a higher level or at the same level. - The Location Refurbish: This location is used for repossessed products
- Location Disposal/Lost: This location is used for Lost or not repossessed products
- : This location is used to dissemble supply sets when sending to a customer
