Locations are where your inventory physically (or logically) lives. Every on-hand quantity is tied to an item and a location. Transfers move stock between locations.
Location types
When creating a location, choose a type that fits how you operate:
| Type | Typical use |
|---|
| Warehouse | Main storage, distribution center |
| Van | Mobile sales or service vehicle |
| Truck | Larger mobile unit or freight |
| Site | Job site, retail floor, pop-up |
| Other | Anything that does not fit above |
The type is for organization and display — it does not change how stock math works.
Create a location
- Open Locations in the sidebar.
- Click Add location.
- Enter a name (unique within the workspace).
- Choose a type and optional note.
- Save.
Your plan caps how many locations you can have. The first location created with your workspace is Inventory — often used as the default receiving location.
Default location
Workspace owners set the default location under Settings → General. This location is pre-selected when you add items with opening stock from the inventory page.
View location inventory
Click a location card to open inventory filtered to that location. The card also shows how many distinct items have stock there.
Edit or delete a location
From a location card’s ⋯ menu:
- Edit — change name, type, or note
- Delete — remove the location
You cannot delete a location that still has stock balances. Transfer or adjust stock to zero at that location first, or move items elsewhere.
Only owners and members with unrestricted access can edit or delete locations.
Location access for team members
When inviting teammates, you can restrict which locations each member can view or edit. Owners always see everything. See Team & members.
Working with multiple locations
A typical setup:
- Warehouse — bulk storage
- Retail store — floor stock
- Service van — technician parts
Use Transfers to move stock between them as goods ship, replenish, or return. Use the location dropdown on Inventory to check counts at each place without leaving the page.
