Hello, we're using Ax 2012 R3.

I want to test the Lean Manufacturing Kanban Supermarket functionality.

For this, I need to make a location with Location type "Kanban supermarket".

This can be done, as far as I can see, in Inventory Management > Setup > Inventory Breakdown > Inventory locations.

I've made a location ("super") in our main warehouse (called "M") - but when I want to use this main warehouse in the above mentioned form, I get the infolog: "You cannot use warehouse M because it is controlled for WHS. Select a warehouse that is not controlled for WHS."

It seems I can only use other warehouses.

How can I change the location type of my newly defined location to "Kanban supermarket"? Or do I need to define a new Warehouse for this as well?

Update: I was able to make a Location with location type "Kanban supermarket", via the form Inventory Management > Setup > Inventory Breakdown > Inventory locations (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa589646.aspx).

But I had to define a different Warehouse for this than our standard warehouse...

This said, the Kanban Supermarket functionality works as promised: material is consumed upon scanning "empty" of the Kanban cards. Great!
