Create an operating location

Create an operating location for an office, warehouse, or other place where your company operates. Open Menu > Administration > QuickStart settings > Company structure.

Before you begin

You need permission to create operating locations. Decide on a unique location name and the time zone used at the location. Decide whether QuickStart should use this location as the default fulfillment or receiving location for applicable transactions.

Create an operating location

1. Open Menu > Administration > QuickStart settings > Company structure.

2. Select Operating locations.

3. Select Create operating location.

4. In Name, enter the operating location name.

5. In Time zone, select the location’s time zone.

6. To use this location by default for shipping transactions, select Default for shipping. If another default exists, review There is already a default location and select Yes to replace it or No to keep the existing default.

7. Select Create.

The new location appears in the Operating locations list. Open the location when you need to add or update its addresses or change Default for shipping.

QuickStart prefills the default location as Fulfillment location on applicable sales orders and invoices. On a vendor bill, it prefills Receiving location when an item has multiple available locations and the default is one of them. You can leave all locations without a shipping default.
