Join nowI'm just trying to understand how Bin Locations in Advanced Inventory Settings works. I have MAIN WHSE as my Inventory Site and in there, I added BIN A.
I have 5000 items, all of them have no bin location. Let's say those items are located in BIN A in the warehouse, Don't I need to assign each of them to BIN A?
or am I doing this all wrong? Thanks for any help.
I am having the same problem. I have over 14000 items that need a home and I can't figure out how to assign a location to them. We Are only in one location but inventory is in several different rooms and bins. How do I do this???
Hello there, @JerYPC and @CARLA47!
You're on the right track, you can assign a bin location to an item by transferring them.
First off, let's turn on the Row, Shelf, or Bin preference so you can add a new bin location to an existing site or location. I'll show you how.
Once done, here's how you can create a new bin location:
From here, you can now go ahead and transfer your inventory items:
In addition, here's an article you can read to learn more about your bin location management: Multiple Inventory Sites.
Lastly, I've got you this helpful article for ideas about the other ways you can utilize for your inventory management: Set up and use the Warehouse Manager App.
