---+ Warehouse Locations
---++ Multiple locations
   * The 'Location(s)' field can hold more than one location.
   * Normally the first location is the *primary pick location* and the others bulk locations (usually the shelves directly above the primary pick location).
     <br> 
     Example:
     <br>
     |<img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/wareloc01.gif" title="Example01">|
     <br>
     In this example 'A1' is the primary pick location.

---++ Quantity per location
   * By far the easiest method to keep track of quantities per location is to just add some textual information to the location number.
   * %ICON{"note"}% *Note:* If you have more than one pick location (e.g. different batches or 'lots' of the same product) then see [[#MultipleBatches][Batches and multiple locations]] below.
     <br>
     Example:
     <br>
     |<img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/wareloc02.gif" title="Example04">|
     <br>
   * In this example there are 50 pieces available on location A2 and also 50 pieces available on location A3.
   * The total quantity on stock is 129 pieces, so there must be 29 pieces available at primary pick location 'A1'.
   * This is purely textual information and by far the easiest method to use for people working in a warehouse
   * The big advantage of keeping things simple is that you can add whatever information you like..
     <br>
     Example:
     <br>
     |<img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/wareloc03.gif" title="Example03">|
     <br>


#MultilpeBatches
---++ Batches and multiple locations
   * If you have more than one pick location, or different batches or 'lots' of the same product, you probably need to keep track of stock levels per location.
   * The easiest method to do this is to just add the location number (or 'batch' or 'lot' number) to the productID.
     <br>
     Example:
     <br>
     |<img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/wareloc04.gif" title="Example04">|
     <br>
   * This method gives you several different records for the same product and hence also separate stock counters and location designators.
     <br>
     Example:
     <br>
     | *product* | *qty in stock* | *location* |
     | 123456.A1 |  29  |  A1  |
     | 123456.A2 |  50  |  A2  |
     | 123456.A3 |  50  |  A3  |
     <br>
   * An other example having a lot number.
     <br>
     Example:
     <br>
     |<img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/wareloc05.gif" title="Example05">|
     <br>
