Overview:

A Location Class is a group of related warehouse locations whose inventory values you maintain together as one (finished goods, stock inventory, defective inventory, scrap, etc.). The Location Class window is where one or more location class for the warehouses is defined. PENTA processes inventory transactions by warehouse and location; PENTA determines the general ledger inventory account to use in the transaction based on the location class/location created in the Location Class window.

Benefits:

  • Allows for different inventory groupings to be maintained in different General Ledger accounts, if desired.

Roles:

  • Warehouse Manager
  • Controller

Additional Content

  • Each Warehouse must have one Location Class

  • Alloc (Y/N) (Account Detail) - PENTA uses the Allocate field to indicate (with a Y for yes or an N for no) whether the Location Class is available for entry on a sales order in the Sales Order Entry window.  You cannot edit this field; it is for display only. This field defaults from the Location Class window.

Location:

  • Inventory > Setup > Location Class
