Setting Up IN Locations
IN Locations are the warehouses, yards, or job sites where you track on-hand materials. Each location has mailing/shipping addresses (used on purchase orders) and GL accounts for inventory activity.
Before you start
- Have the location name/code and address.
- Know the GL accounts for inventory asset, adjustments, and cost of goods for that location.
Steps
- Open IN Locations.
- Enter the location code and description.
- Enter mailing and shipping address details.
- On the Inventory Accounts tab, assign the GL accounts used for inventory transactions (asset, adjustments, COGS, and related accounts as required).
- Save.
Notes
- Materials are tracked per location—transfers and material orders always reference a from/to or source location.
- Location groups (used with bill of materials) are configured separately in IN Location Groups.
