Purpose
This procedure is used to add or change the details of a Warehouse, or to delete a Warehouse when required.
Warehouses are used in conjunction with Stock Locations to define your warehouse setup and structure. Since multiple Stock Locations can be set up within each Warehouse, this provides an excellent reporting summary option when you need to consolidate Inventory figures i.e. Stock on Hand, Stock Value. Usage etc.
Refer to System Options for more on Warehouse Summary Detail and Warehouse Average Unit Cost options available.
