Creating warehouses in Acctivate.

File > Configuration Management > Inventory > Warehouse then click New. Set the GL accounts and relevant information then save.

Occasionally our customers have the need to create a new Acctivate warehouse in configuration manager.  This new warehouse may be a new physical warehouse location or a virtual warehouse location either way the setup process is exactly the same.  Additional warehouses, can be use to isolate inventoried products from other inventory. To do this an additional warehouse must be defined in the system and assigned to the products. The system administrator can also set this as a default Warehouse, related to a new Branch.
