Introduction to Warehouse Area


A warehouse area is a designated section within a warehouse for storing specific types of SKUs. By properly setting up warehouse areas, businesses can reduce unnecessary movement, especially in multi-story or large warehouses, making the picking process faster and smoother.

  • For Warehouse with One SKU One Shelf
    • The system defaults to 2 Warehouse Areas – the Default Picking Area and the Default Piling Area (with default shelves).
    • All shelves including default shelves support picking.
       
  • For Warehouse with One SKU Multiple Shelves
    • The system defaults to 3 Warehouse Areas – the Default Picking Area (with picking shelves), the Default Storage Area (with storage shelves), and the Default Piling Area (with default shelves).
    • Only picking shelves support picking. Storage shelves can only be used for storage or replenishment to picking shelves.
