How to Allocate Inventory to Multiple Bins In GP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that Microsoft Dynamics GP provides the ability to track inventory quantities in more than one bin location within a site\/warehouse?\u00a0 By default, GP lets you set up one “default” bin per item\/site, but if you need more detailed tracking\u2014such as stock spread across aisles, shelves, or zones\u2014you enable Multiple Bins in the Inventory Control module.
\u00a0
You can then assign default bins for different types of transactions for each item\/site combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Bin Quantity Inquiry window lists all the bins containing quantities for a particular item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This does add an extra step to each inventory-related type of transaction because GP now must track not just what site an item is in, but also which bin(s) it is stored in. There are certain steps that need to be followed when you enable this feature.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
