Business Benefits
Various locations in your facility will be of the same size (i.e. length, width, and height) and capacity; i.e. maximum weight, stack, etc.). This program allows you to define these location dimensions for use by the Space Management/Active Putaway functionality.
The Space Management/Active Putaway functionality will determine if there is enough "free space"within a location to accommodate the product that is being putaway.
Note: For related documentation and workflows, see SL - Stock Locator.
