Default Credit Location |
2.8 Feature Select Yes if you want this bin to be the default bin for stock returned via credit notes. You can only set one bin per warehouse as the default credit location. If you set the Default Credit Location for a bin to Yes, Micronet will automatically change this setting to No on any other bins for the warehouse that are set to Yes. To use this feature so that Micronet automatically selects the default bin for returned stock, you need to tick the option to USE DEFAULT BIN LOCATION on the Credit Creation screen – see "Credit Creation - Edit - Use Default Bin Location". |
Micronet redisplays the Warehouse Item Bin Update screen so you can add further bin locations.
