      Warehouse inventory management is a process that involves receiving, storing, and tracking stock in a Warehouse. As well as managing warehouse staff and optimizing storage space and costs. Effective organization of inventory management will directly impact your company's risks of stockouts and inaccurate records.

      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 remember that 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.
