Location Detail Maintenance

Opposed to Zone Maintenance in which you validate locations by assigning zones, pick groups, and other parameters to an entire range of locations, use Location Detail Maintenance to validate locations separately by doing the following:

Entering locations individually or by range.
Assigning unique parameters to single locations or shared parameters to a range of locations.

When users try to place products in a location, the system validates the action against parameters defined in Location Detail Maintenance. For example, if you try to put away product in a location that is at its maximum storage capacity, the system denies the placement.

Use additional Location Detail Maintenance utilities, such as label printing, logs, reports, and queues, to help manage locations defined in Location Detail Maintenance.

Important: Set the Enable Location Parameter Maintenancecontrol maintenance record to Yes to use Location Detail Maintenance. After this control maintenance record is enabled and you define locations in Location Detail Maintenance, the system does not respect new locations entered in Zone Maintenance. You must define and update all locations and parameters in Location Detail Maintenance.

Disable the Enable Location Parameters Database control maintenance record to define locations using Zone Maintenance.
