What is a putaway strategy?
|
||||
===========================
|

===========================

|
||||
Overview
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
A good warehouse implementation takes care that products automatically
|
||||
move to their appropriate destination location. Putaway is the process
|
||||
of taking products off the receiving shipment and put them into the most
|
||||
appropriate location.
|
||||
|
||||
If for instance a warehouse contains volatile substances, it is
|
||||
important to make sure that certain products are not stored close to
|
||||
each other because of a potential chemical reaction.
|
||||
|
||||
A putaway strategy follows the same principle as removal strategies but
|
||||
affect on the destination location. Put away strategies are defined at
|
||||
the location level (unlike removal strategies which are defined at the
|
||||
product level).
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
Go to :menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Settings` and check option
|
||||
**Manage several location per warehouse & Advance routing of products using
|
||||
rules**, then click on **Apply**.

Setting up a strategy
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
Let's take as an example a retail shop where we store vegetables and
|
||||
fruits.
|
||||
|
||||
We have to store this type of product in different locations to maintain
|
||||
product quality.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose there is one warehouse location **WH/Stock** and there is
|
||||
sub location **WH/Stock/Vegetables** & **WH/Stock/Fruits**.
|
||||
|
||||
You can create a putaway strategy from
|
||||
:menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Locations`.
|
||||
Open any location where you want to set a putaway strategy,
|
||||
click on **Edit** and locate the option **Put Away Strategy**.
|
||||
|
||||
.. image:: media/putaway02.png
|
||||
:align: center
|
||||
|
||||
Open the roll-down menu and click on **Create and Edit**. This will open a
|
||||
form view of put away strategy on which you have to set a name for the
|
||||
strategy, and set the method and fixed location for each category.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
When you have entered all the necessary information, click on **Save**.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, when you will purchase products from those categories, they will
|
||||
automatically be transferred to the correct location.
|
||||
|
||||
To check current inventory, Go to
|
||||
:menuselection:`Inventory --> Inventory Control --> Current Inventory`
|
||||
|
||||
There you can see current inventory by location.
