Configure a Warehouse Management System location
Multiple locations provide you with the possibility of setting up each location (warehouse) in a specific way. To set up a Warehouse Management System warehouse in Business Central, follow these steps:
Select the Search for page icon in the upper-right corner of the page, enter Locations, and then select the related link.
Select New and then select New.
Enter a code and a name.
On the Address FastTab, enter the address details.
Expand the Warehouse FastTab.
Select the Require Receive, Require Shipment, Require Put-away, and Require Pick options.
Select the Bin Mandatory option.
Select the Directed Put-away and Pick option.
All warehouse requirements appear dimmed because of the Warehouse Management System requirements. If the Directed Put-away and Pick field is selected, this location will use Warehouse Management System. When this field is selected, the Require Receive, Require Shipment, Require Put-away, Require Pick, and the Bin Mandatory fields are selected by default and become noneditable, which means that this location uses bins and all warehouse documents. From now on, it won't be possible to post receipts from a purchase order and shipments from the sales order.
You can also select to use the put-away worksheet to organize your put-away activities. From this worksheet, put-away can be created, which provides you with the ability to make changes to the put-away. When activated, deleted put-away lines can be retrieved through this worksheet to create a new put-away.
