Warehouse Detail

The Warehouse Detail page is accessed from the Warehouse Summary. Select the edit pencil to modify the warehouse details. For more information, please see the table below.

Screen Element	Description
Warehouse	Read-only. This is the unique code for the warehouse. This field is similar to the product code text box.
Warehouse Name	Text box. The name of the warehouse.
Country	Drop-down. The country where the warehouse is located.
Postal Code	Text box. The postal code where the warehouse is located. This is for informational purposes only.
Validate Bins	Toggle. This is applicable when you want to track bins. Typically, you do not set this toggle to YES if there are no restrictions as to where the products are stored within a warehouse or if there are too many bins to maintain administratively. If this checkbox is NOT checked, a Bin Location can be manually entered from the Inventory Receipt screen.
Active	Toggle. This indicates if this warehouse can be used in a product to receive inventory. If this checkbox is NOT selected, contains inventory, and has been assigned to an order, the order will still be fulfilled from this warehouse. If you set this toggle to NO, and the warehouse is attached to an inventoried product, the system will set the Active toggle to NO on the Inventory Locations for this warehouse. The system will display a warning message before you can proceed. If a warehouse is active and has been used in a product, setting this toggle to NO to make the warehouse not Active will display a warning message. If you select Yes, this warehouse and ALL the product warehouse detail records will be inactivated. If you select No, then this warehouse will be inactivated and all the product warehouse detail records will not be affected.
POS	Toggle. This toggle identifies any warehouse that will be used for POS transactions. You can use a POS warehouse for on-site sales at meetings. An on-site warehouse at a convention, for instance, assumes that the product is delivered directly to the customer and no shipping is charged. The system never selects a Point of Sale (POS) warehouse automatically in an order line. In that regard, the system treats POS warehouses as if they were storage warehouses. Even if a product being ordered is backordered and there is available inventory in a POS warehouse, the system will put the order line on backorder. It will NOT automatically select a POS warehouse. When a POS order is created or when a POS batch is open, the system will automatically set the line status = A (active) and the fulfill status = P (preshipped). POS warehouses cannot be used on the web because POS warehouses required a POS batch.
