Location Format

Defining the location format enables you to determine how to set up item locations. You can define elements that contain more specific information about the actual location. For example, an element can represent an aisle, bin, shelf, or any other location that you use in a branch/plant.

You can define a location format using up to 10 different elements, such as aisle, shelf, and bin. For each element, you can define:

  • Length

    The total length of all elements, including separators, cannot exceed 20 characters. The system does not store separators in the tables, but uses separators to edit a location on a form or report. If you do not want to use separators, leave the separator field blank. The system displays the location as one string of characters.

  • Justification

  • Separator character

If you are using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Warehouse Management, you must also define default units of measure for volumes, dimensions, and weights.
