Maintenance - Item Maintenance - Bin Location Maintenance

Micronet allows you to setup multiple bin locations for each warehouse. These are physical locations in your warehouse.

Using multiple bin locations allows you to track the exact location of items currently in stock. When printing picking slips, slips can be sorted by, and show, the bin location to assist with correct picking of goods. This means that goods can be despatched from your warehouse to your customers more efficiently because warehouse staff know exactly where to find the items they need.

An item can be stored in multiple bins or different items in the one bin.

Technical Tip Many of these options only apply if the registration code for Multi Bins is turned on and if your system is configured for multiple bin locations – see "Edit - Program - Inventory" for more information.

The Bin Location Maintenance options allow you to:

• change bin locations for selected items – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Change Bin Locations"
• enter new bin locations – see "Bin Location Maintenance - New Bin Locations"
• validate bin locations, converting any bins that have been entered in lower case to upper case – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Validate Bin Locations"
• delete empty bins – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Delete Empty Bins"
• remove all cross dock bins where the stock on hand is zero (2.8 feature) – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Delete Cross Dock Bin"
• resequence bin priorities after you have changed bin locations or added bins – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Resequence Bin Locations"
• re-allocate items to bin locations – see "Bin Location Maintenance - Re-Allocate Bin Locations".
