Creating an Item/Warehouse Record

To maintain an item in inventory at more than one warehouse, you must create an Item/Warehouse record for each warehouse where an item may be stored.

When you create an inventory item, an item/warehouse record is automatically created using the default warehouse as designated on the Inventory Parameters form. You need to create additional item/warehouse records only if you plan to store the item in other warehouses.

Before you can create such additional item/warehouse records, you must first create one or more additional warehouses using the Warehouses form.

To create an item/warehouse record:

  1. Open the Item/Warehouse form.
  2. On the toolbar, click the Filter-in-Place button.
  3. In the Item field, select the item for which to create a new warehouse location.
  4. In the Warehouse field, select the warehouse in which to store the item.
    Note:  Remember that, before you can select additional warehouses, you must first create them using the Warehouses form.
  5. Save the record.
