Question

Multiple inventory sites - prefill site

  • February 3, 2021

We currently operate two warehouses under the same company. We are looking to turn on multiple inventory sites, and then when we invoice we would have to select which location we are selling from. That being said, all of our sales in a province would be coming from one warehouse and all sales in another province would come from the other warehouse. Is there a way to default that location based on the province, or to assign a warehouse as a default to a customer? We don't want to have to manually change that information every time we make an invoice.

Hello Sehgal2099, 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

When you say province, are you in Canada? 

 

Quickbooks Desktop doesn't have this "multiple inventory sites" function, so it looks like you're using enterprise which isn't supported in the UK. Not sure if it is possible on Enterprise, it would be manually doing it on Desktop. Enterprise is great with stock so probably can do it on there.

Make sure which QB Desktop country version you are using. If you are not sure, open your file and click Edit menu > Preferences. On the left panel, one of the listed menu is Sales Tax, VAT, or else?

Not related to tax, it is related to selecting which inventory site the product is coming from.

Hi Sir, we are in Canada. So dealing with provinces. Thanks!


Weird. Your post appeared in the UK Community 8)

Anyway, I would recommend you to manage 2 separate company files. One company file is for one warehouse. You don't have to enable multi warehouse feature. I am not sure whether these features still available on QBD Enterprise CA:

1. Utilize the consolidating feature

2. Open 2 company files at the same time on the same screen, if required

 

Just my 2 cents.
