View On-Hand Quantity and Stocking Locations for Your Goods

When performing various tasks in your warehouse, there are times when you need the ability to quickly find an item or where it could be stocked. For example, in the middle of picking goods to fulfill an order, you find that there isn't sufficient quantity in the location to fulfill the order because some goods are damaged. Because this is a critical order, you want to see if the goods are stored in another location. Now you can view the on-hand quantity of an item in all locations and the on-hand quantity of all items in a location using a mobile device. Additionally, when your items are associated with a specific location, a search by item provides the list of locations where the item is associated, and a search by location provides a list of all the items associated with that location, even when you have zero on-hand quantity.

This feature provides you the flexibility to view the on-hand quantity and stocking locations for your goods in real time when you're performing tasks on the move around your warehouse.

Steps to Enable
