Description of Location Size Code Details Window

The following table lists the fields and descriptions of the Location Size Code Details window.

Table 1. Location Size Code Details Window
Field Description
Location Size Code Enter the location size code.

The list of location size codes is reflective of the different types of storage in the warehouse. Typically only large variances in the capacity are broken up into different size codes.

Description Enter a brief description for the location size code.
Capacity Tracked Select only if the location size tracks the capacity.
Single Deep Select only if the location is single deep.

A location is single deep if the depth of the location is such that it can only hold one LPN.

Length Enter the length of the location.

The length UOM is populated automatically from the node's locale.

Width Enter the width of the location.

The width UOM is populated automatically from the node's locale.

Height Enter the height of the location.

The height UOM is populated automatically from the node's locale.

Volume Indicates the volume of the location.

The volume UOM is populated automatically from the node's locale.

Max Weight Enter the maximum weight that the location can hold.

The weight UOM is populated automatically from the node's locale.

Capacity Constraints

Specifying Capacity Constraints is optional. For example, capacity constraints would not be set up for a location size marked as INFINITE.

Enterprise Code Select the enterprise that is placing capacity constraints for the size code.

Enterprise code is a mandatory field, to specify the other attributes.

Item Size Classification Enter the item classification that is placing capacity constraints for the size code.
UOM Select the unit of measure that is placing capacity constraints for the size code.

The list of valid UOMs for the enterprise is automatically populated.

No of Packages Enter the maximum number of packages that the size code can hold for the capacity constraints specified.

For example, a size code for a single pallet location can hold one package of UOM type SINGLE-PALLET. A size code of multi-case location can hold two packages of UOM type CASE.

Note: It is recommended that the most frequently used locations/docks/stations are set up with a size code that does not track capacity (i.e. infinite capacity locations). Performance of operations like receiving, putaway, shipping, and packing are greatly enhanced if the locations/station locations are modelled as infinite.
