Warehousing and warehouse item settings on company, site, and warehouse level
If you use sites, warehouse data and warehousing-specific item data can be globally applicable for the entire company structure, or locally for specific sites or warehouses.
Data specified by company are applicable for all sites and warehouses of the company, unless adjusted for specific sites or warehouses.
Data specified by site apply to the warehouses linked to the site, unless adjusted for specific warehouses, and you can specify data for individual warehouses.
