Inventory and Warehouses/Warehouse Management

Warehouse and Bin Management

This article contains instructions to:

• create and manage warehouses, bins and stock
• restrict access to warehouses
• transfer stock from one location to another.

Creating the stock items and placing them into warehouses or bins is done via the product inventory import tool. Product instances cannot be created in the system using an alternative method.

Creating Warehouse and Bins

To create a warehouse, log into Cumulus and go to:

Nav: Inventory > Warehouses

1. Click the Add New Warehouse button.
2. Enter a name for the warehouse.
3. If access to this warehouse will be restricted to only some users, check the Restricted Access check box.
4. Press Save.

The main screen of the warehouse will be displayed. From here, you can:

• Add and maintain Bins inside your warehouse.
• Allow access to users to the bin (requires the warehouse to be flagged as Restricted.)

To create a bin, from Inventory > Warehouses > Bins:

1. Click the Add New Bin button.
2. Enter a name for the bin.
3. Press Save.
