Rack locations are a bit more complicated than normal ones, as each rack my contain over a dozen individual locations. It is best to start with an understanding about the way Rack locations are labeled in Windfall.

We also have documentation that can help you Create New Warehouse Locations, and if you need something more specialized, you can also Create Custom Location Types.

Rack Labels

In Windfall racks are sorted by row, bay, and level. Each of these components has a label that combines to make up the individual location tags within each rack.

In the image shown here, each shelf (LEVEL) is labeled with a letter. They are found on the rack (BAY) 01. Many bays containing their own levels may exist in row A.

Creating a Rack Location

When creating the rack location, navigate to the ‘Locations’ tab on the right side. Once inside, click the ‘New’ button at the top. Make sure that RACK is the selected ‘Location Type’. This will open up the fields for ‘Row', ‘Bay’, and 'Level’.

Create Multiple Rack Locations

Creating a single location at a time is not particularly efficient when dealing with rack locations. Creating multiple locations at once becomes a necessity. From the ‘Locations’ tab, click the ‘New’ button at the top of the page.

You need to make sure ‘Create Multiple Locations’ is checked. Then you will fill out two sets of data. The ‘From’ column on the left will essentially be your first rack location, and the ‘To’ column is basically your last. The image below shows the range of locations created.

Slot Configuration

Any time a rack location is created it requires a slot configuration. This feature gives users options for how they would like to divide each level.
