Introduction

In the inventory function in DashBod, a user is able to create both a Warehouse and Location.

What’s the difference?

A Warehouse is the physical building or place where your items are stocked. You can create more than one warehouse and create moves between them.

A Location is a specific space within your warehouse, or in other words, it is a sublocation of your warehouse. For example, a shelf, floor or an aisle. Hence, a location is tagged to only one warehouse and it is not possible to link one location to multiple warehouses. You will be able to create as many locations as you need under one warehouse.
