Entering Multiple Locations

Access the Speed Location Maintenance Revisions form.

You can use the Speed Location Setup program (P4100A) to add or revise location information. The P4100A program updates the F4100 table.

After you select an operation, the system displays a line in the upper left corner of the form that indicates the number of locations that the specification will create. Verify that this number is correct before you update. You can change the specification and select the operation as often as needed to obtain the desired results before you update the table.

If you make an error when setting up the locations, you cannot delete locations in the P4100A. You must access the Work With Location Master form to delete individual locations or an entire range of locations.

Putaway/Pick/Replen Sequence(putaway/pick/replenishment sequence)

Assign a number to a location to determine its place in the putaway sequence. Putaway is the movement of inventory to storage after receipt. A sequence of locations describes the path that warehouse employees follow through the warehouse during movement tasks. You can specify in the Movement Instructions program (P46095) whether the system uses the putaway sequence as a tiebreaker when more than one location is selected for putaway. For example, you can establish sequencing for the most efficient putaway routing.

Copy From Location

Enter the area in the warehouse where you receive inventory. The format of the location is user-defined, and you enter the location format for each branch/plant.

Leading Zeroes

Specify whether the system populates leading spaces with zeroes instead of blank spaces.
