Zone type code
Apart from indicating a standard location or zone, the user can also specify the zone type code. If such a code is entered, the system verifies upon storing an item whether it can be stored in this zone and prevents the item from being stored in a different zone. This can be used for instance if a product needs to be ‘cooled’. If the product has this zone type, it can only be stored on location within a zone that is also ‘cooled’.
Note: Items with assigned Zone Types during a duplication action will carry over the defined Zone Type to the duplicated Item as well.

Select the warehouse from the drop-down list on the Pmx Warehouse Code field. Every warehouse that is managed by Produmex can be selected.
Add the code of the location or the zone on the Default location or zone code field. Only locations or zones that belong to the selected warehouse can be added.
