Inventory Part/ Default Location

Hi,

In the Inventory part/Default locations tab, you can set only one location per each location type.

The main use of this functionality is to facilitate receipt handling. The default location will be automatically displayed on arrival and receipt.

However, you can save a record for each location where you want to move the parts to, in the ‘Move inventory part’ window, so that the users can simply enter the qty to move in than particular line.

Also, if you have a large hierarchy to consider when moving parts, you can use the ‘Perform putaway’ function instead, after ranking the locations as per your requirement.

I hope this information help.

Thanks,

thanks for the reply, I think I was trying to use the system in the incorrect way.

You cannot add more than one default locations of same Location Type (In your case picking type).

If you want to evaluate same type of locations , then put away process would be an option.

However, system allows you to define different type of default locations  on the same tab

Ex: Default Arrival type location, default floor stock type location etc.

Hi Jamie,

The standard functionality is explained in a very detailed form in the two answers. To add more input to your query. Can I know the following input :

1. A possible scenario (real time )
2. You mentioned move goods from paint store to a shop floor location ? This would mean your components to where the actual manufacturing and detailing is happening ?
