In Odoo, a **Warehouse** is the actual building/place in which your items
|
||||||
|
are stocked. You can setup multiple warehouses and create moves between
|
||||||
|
warehouses.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A **Location**, is a specific space within your warehouse. It can be
|
||||||
|
considered as a sublocation of your warehouse, as a shelf, a floor, an
|
||||||
|
aisle, etc. Therefore, a location is part of one warehouse only and it
|
||||||
|
is not possible to link one location to multiple warehouses. You can
|
||||||
|
configure as much locations as you need under one warehouse.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are 3 types of locations:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The **Physical Locations** are internal locations that are part of the
|
||||||
|
warehouses for which you are the owner. They can be the loading and
|
||||||
|
unloading area of your warehouse, a shelf or a department, etc.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The **Partner Locations** are spaces within a customer and/or vendor’s
|
||||||
|
warehouse. They work the same way as Physical Locations with the only
|
||||||
|
difference being that you are not the owner of the warehouse.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The **Virtual Locations** are places that do not exist, but in which
|
||||||
|
products can be placed when they are not physically in an inventory yet
|
||||||
|
(or anymore). They come in handy when you want to place lost products
|
||||||
|
out of your stock (in the **Inventory loss**), or when you want to take into
|
||||||
|
account products that are on their way to your warehouse (**Procurements**).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In Odoo, locations are structured hierarchically. You can structure your
|
||||||
|
locations as a tree, dependent on a parent-child relationship. This
|
||||||
|
gives you more detailed levels of analysis of your stock operations and
|
||||||
|
the organization of your warehouses.
