How to Create and Edit Counting Locations (Desktop App)



Counting Locations refers to the specific physical areas within a Warehouse where Stock items are stored and subsequently counted. These Locations are designated areas where stock counts are done to ensure accurate inventory records. They assist you when doing a Stock Take by breaking the Warehouse into smaller sections, making stock counts more accurate and easier to manage.

Creating Counting Locations allows you to define sections, bins, shelves, cabinets, and other storage areas within a Warehouse where Stock Items are kept.

Editing your Counting Locations enables you to make changes to those that have already been created.
