Manage Subinventories and Locators on Redesigned Pages

Subinventories and locators represent physical locations where you store materials within your warehouse or stockroom. Maintaining various settings like material status or min-max values for your subinventories, locators, and item subinventories can be key to smooth warehouse operations. To assist in managing these settings, a new user experience is available in this update.

You may now create subinventories and locators, and associate items with subinventory and locators with improved user experience on your redesigned Redwood pages. These pages are accessible using the Configure Subinventories task from both the Inventory Management work area and the Setup and Maintenance work area. Here are some of the new pages that will help you achieve the tasks like search subinventory, create new subinventory, create new locator, and associate item with subinventory and locator:

1. Subinventories
2. Subinventory Details
3. Locator Details
4. Associate Item with Subinventory
5. Associate Item with Locator
6. Item Details
7. Associate Locator with Item

Tips And Considerations

• You may access the Configure Subinventories task from both the Inventory Management work area and the Setup and Maintenance work area.

• You must set up the Default Inventory Organization profile option for the user to default the organization on the new Subinventories page.

• Subinventories with no locator control won't have the locator tab enabled on the Subinventory Details page.

• You must associate an item with a subinventory before you associate the item with a locator.

• Ensure users who are responsible for associating items with subinventories or locators have data security defined for the root item class using the Manage Item Classes task in the Setup and Maintenance work area: 
  • Offering: Product Management
  • Functional Area: Items
  • Task: Manage Item Classes

The View Item Basic action must be associated with the users.
