IM1201 Inventory Management Location File Maintenance
Location File Maintenance
Application Overview
The Location File Maintenance application maintains a convenient table of inventory locations, i.e., places where inventory is stored, such as warehouses or stockrooms. All receivings, issues, and transfers of inventory are made using the two‑character location number. The description is used on reports, or on entry screens, where verification of a location is required. All inventory locations used by your company must be entered into this file. The package will not allow receivings, transfers, or issues from locations where the item is not kept in stock.
