Our warehouse is divided into Primary bins and Overstock bins, very standard. Our primary bins are permanently assigned to an item, in fact we have two items per bin (majority of our bins, some can have up to 4 items). We have customized our Warehouse Bin Locations to have two items per bin but we do not know how to handle more than two items per bin in SL.
Our overstock bins run on a chaos inventory methodology and we can have anywhere from 1 overstock bin per item up to 45 overstock bins. We have implemented a customized solution called "Possible Bin Location". Our customization is bugged and we need to redevelop it.
I can provide more details but wanted to start by see if anyone else runs there warehouse this way and how they handle it in Dynamics.
Hi Andrew
SL just support very basis warehouse management function, so we just can customize system to meet some simple requirement.
For the first issue, you already customized two primary items in one Bin location so you can add 3 or 4 primary items with the same code. If you lack of field to customize, you can add a custom table to do it, you can search the way to do it in this forum.
For the second issue, we setup a temporary Bin location to store all overstock items. This Bin location isn't allowed to sale, just can receive or transfer. You can setup this option in warehouse Bin location maintenance.
Finally, if your warehouse management really complicate or your company is a logistic company you should use a third party warehouse management solution because SL can not handle with professional warehouse manager requirement.
Hi Nam,
My requirements are:
Primary Bins - we have two items, up to four items, permanently assigned in our Primary Bins. The standard setup in SL is one item per bin. Do you have multiple items in a primary bin? And if so how to you handle this in SL? In Warehouse Bin Location maintenance we had to add a column and customize an unused field for the 2nd item. We do not know how to do this for the 3rd and/or 4th item. We are almost out of unused fields that we could customize.
Overstock Bins - we put our inventory in these bins based on availability of open bins. The same item may not necessarily go into the same overstock bin time after time. We also may move an overstock item out of one overstock bin and into another Overstock or into Primary bin. We are not aware of anything in SL for maintaining/managing overstock bins. Does your company utilize overstock bins? And if so, how do you manage/maintain them in SL?
Hi Andrew
I don't really understand your requirement but in our company we have hundred Bin location in a site, some are set primary item, some aren't. Of course there are always have some requirements from users and we try to adjust by work process first before doing a customization.
