STOCK LOCATION MANAGEMENT MANUAL

An item belongs to a stock location. Each department & outlet created will automatically have a stock location, additional locations can be created. For Market list purchasing, a distribution location is needed. A distribution location is a stock location, but a stock location is not automatically a distribution location.

Remarks: This is a “Per Property” program. This means, adding editing, and deleting will not affect other properties.

The stock location will not appear in the stock Request program if the Goods Receive Area is Blank.
