Defining a default storage bin for product variants helps to manage inventory organization by specifying a consistent location for each item. This ensures that products are stored systematically, making it easier to locate items and maintain accurate inventory records.
Default storage bins can be added to both products and materials by assigning each variant a unique default storage bin or by having multiple variants share the same default storage bin (if applicable).
A single variant cannot be allocated to multiple storage bins simultaneously. You can specify a default storage bin for each location, providing you with precise control over your inventory.
Adding, editing, or removing a default storage bin
Open the item card for an item you want to assign default storage bins.
Click on the associated Bin icon from the Variants table.
In the popup window you can add, edit, or remove the storage bin per Location.
Choose an existing storage bin from the list or create a new one.
Note: You can add and edit default storage bins in bulk using data import templates: Import new products and variants, Update existing products and variants, Import new materials and variants, Update existing materials and variants.
Default storage bins can also be found within the Inventory tab of the Stock screen.
