Creating a new warehouse
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
In order to be able to create a new warehouse, you must allow the system
|
|
to manage multiple locations. In the **Inventory** module, open the menu
|
|
:menuselection:`Settings --> Configuration`. In the **Location &
|
|
Warehouse** section, tick the **Manage several locations per warehouse**
|
|
box, then click on **apply**.

|
|
Open the menu :menuselection:`Configuration --> Warehouse Management --> Warehouses`
|
|
|
|
In the warehouses screen, click on **Create**. A new screen appears, with
|
|
3 fields :
|
|
|
|
- In **Warehouse Name**, insert the full name of the warehouse.
|
|
|
|
- In the **Short Name** field, insert a 5-characters code for your
|
|
warehouse. Keep in mind that this code is the one that will appear in
|
|
the lists, so make sure you choose a name that is easy to understand
|
|
and easy to enter.
|
|
|
|
- In the **Address** field, you can select an existing company or create
|
|
one on-the-go. Therefore, the address of your warehouse will be the same
|
|
as the one of the company you selected. You can also leave this field
|
|
empty and edit it afterwards.

|
picking types and main child locations for this main location in the background.
