Location Characteristics
A characteristic is anything that makes a location (or a location group) unique. For example, you might stock items that must be kept cold to prevent spoilage, so you must identify locations, such as a refrigerator, with characteristics that include Cold. You can assign an unlimited number of characteristics to each location in the warehouse.
If you use random locations for putaway, you must rebuild the tiebreaker table whenever you change the characteristics of a random location.
You can select a predefined characteristic from the Select User Define Code form. If the predefined characteristics do not meet the needs of the business, you can define the new characteristic and then reference that characteristic on the Work with Location Characteristics form.
Use location characteristic groups to reduce the number of locations for which you must define characteristics by grouping them.
