What are Inventory Warehouses?
Inventory Warehouses represent the physical locations where inventory is stored. By default, OrderLogix stores one warehouse as the default location but multiple warehouses with various locations can be added. You can manage these locations by navigating to Company Data>Inventory>Warehouse List.
Using Multiple Warehouses
When using multiple Warehouses you will need to submit a ticket within OrderLogix HelpDesk notifying Customer Care of your intentions. There are modules that will need additional coding in order for your instance to work correctly.
Other items that will be affected by using multiple warehouses are:
- Inventory Items - Every inventory item needs to have all of the available warehouses listed with their associated Search Order number. Customer Care will work with you to set this up in the order needed for optimal performance.
- Inventory Sync - If using another method to update inventory please notify Customer Care in your ticket.
- Shipping Export - If you have unique shipping configurations that need to be taken into consideration with implementing multiple warehouses please notify Customer Care in your ticket.
- Scheduling - You will need to be mindful of the order in which jobs are ran within your instance, pertaining to inventory and shipping. Customer Care will work with you to set this up in the order needed for optimal performance.
Navigate to Company Data>Inventory>Warehouse List
Existing warehouse entries can be edited by clicking on the edit pencil icon, or added by clicking on the 'Add New icon' on the top of the screen. Adding or editing a warehouse brings up the Warehouse editor screen:
- Main warehouse details - The top section of the screen contains the main warehouse details. It provides contact and address information for the warehouse. Most importantly, the address fields are used when Purchase Orders are printed.
- Warehouse Locations - These are individual physical locations inside of the warehouse. The first field, floor, is mandatory but the others are optional. The read-only column named Ocpd (short for occupied) indicates that there are inventory items already stored at these locations. The Multi checkbox indicates that the location may be used to store different kind of SKU’s, which is common for a loading dock or for many locations in a small warehouse.
When you are receiving inventory in OrderLogix, you will be asked which location in the warehouse the inventory will be stored in.
