Material that is received on site and booked into the inventory is stored at a location in a warehouse. All material in the inventory is handled with an assigned warehouse, location, receiving status, and quantity unit.
For easy identification, a location should be related to a real physical material storage location.
Site locations are defined on the C.10.01 Site Locations screen.
The name of the site location appears in the Location field and the descriptions in the Short Desc and Description fields. To make a location a quarantine location, the Quarantine Loc indicator must be selected. A quarantine location is needed for the Site inspection feature. A quarantine location is not available to issue material; therefore, material assigned to a quarantine location cannot be selected on the material issue screens. The Cable Drum indicator can be used for reporting purposes; it is not used anywhere else in Smart Materials.
