This guide explains how to define the default warehouse and possible storage location for a product in the Rackbeat system. The guide reminds that warehouses and storage locations must be defined before creating products.

CONTENTS

Locations

In Rackbeat, you can access locations by going to Warehouse > Locations

In the Locations section, you define the default warehouse and possible storage location for a product. Locations must be defined before products are created in the program.

Creating a warehouse

Creating a new warehouse starts with the create new button. Assign the desired number and name to the warehouse. The number field must be unique for the new warehouse, meaning the same number cannot be used for multiple warehouses.

  • Barcode: This is intended for selecting/identifying the location through the interface in cases of different integrations. The use of the field is not mandatory. 
  • Status: 
    • Open, in which case the warehouse is available and selectable for products.
    • Blocked, in which case this warehouse cannot be selected for a product. This can be used if the warehouse is no longer in use. The warehouse cannot be deleted if products are linked to it. 

The create warehouse button saves the information. 

Once the warehouse is created, you can edit it and then add storage locations to the warehouse.

Storage locations are also given a name, number (must be a unique number), and can use a barcode and define whether it is in use or not.

From the homepage, you can also edit the warehouse name or delete it. Deleting a warehouse or storage location is not possible if the warehouse is linked to a product, but if necessary, the warehouse status can be set to blocked if it is no longer desired to be used.
