# Warehouse and location management

To prevent products or items from getting mixed up, companies prefer to distribute them to their respective warehouses and locations.

## Context: 

PROBIO, a company specializing in the production of fresh food, is opening two warehouses named Warehouse1 and Warehouse2 to store surplus fruit and vegetables.

To optimize the management of these products, PROBIO has set up two storage locations for each warehouse: FRjaune and FRrouge for warehouse 1, and LGracines and LGtubéreux for warehouse 2, ensuring that fruits and vegetables do not get mixed up.

## Implementation

To begin, click **Stock > Locations > Warehouses**, then click **\[\[New]]**.

Indicate the name and location of your warehouse, the type of warehouse, its temperature, and its surface area.

This will enable you to manage the locations of your goods.

Now that your warehouses have been created, create your locations.

A location is a specific place in a warehouse where stock is stored.

To create a location, click on **Stock > Locations > Locations,** then on **\[\[New]]**.

## Location hierarchy

You can define location levels, such as zones, levels, or aisles, via:

**Stock > Locations > Location Levels.**

Next, in **the locations**, you can define the level and the **higher location** to which they are attached.

You can view locations in tree view mode via:
