**💡 Please note:** Available Locations for the warehouse restrict access to it.
Every user will have access to the Warehouses according to their available Locations.
Example:
1. Warehouse A enabled for Locations A and B.
2. Warehouse B enabled for Locations B and D.
- If you have access to Location A, you will have access to Warehouse A.
- If you have access to Location B, you will have access to Warehouse A and B.
- If you have access to Location D, you will have access to Warehouse B.

### How to Import Warehouses In Bulk
You can promptly import any number of Warehouses with a single file, rather than creating all those entries manually.
This functionality is available on the **Inventory** management page.
Click the **Import Warehouses** button on the right action panel, and you will be redirected to the standard import form. Follow the steps as instructed on the page.
**💡 Please note:** The file format for submission should be **XLSX,** and you should enter information into the following required fields: **Name** and **Location**.
You can enter multiple **Locations** into the file by separating them with a semicolon “**;**”.
You can also change and manually input another **Warehouse Type**. By default, this field is set to **All**.
### FAQs
**How do you view up-to-date totals in a warehouse?**
When viewing the stock balance, press the Update Totals button in the action panel to update the totals according to the changes in the catalog.
