Add New Backup Warehouse Screen

This screen will create a new warehouse and set it up as a Backup Warehouses for an existing warehouse:

Name: Name of your new warehouse

Owner: Internal ID of the organization which owns the inventory of this warehouse. It could be one of your vendors or a special third party inventory warehouse company.

Currency: Currency of the inventory held in this warehouse.

Inventory Item Type: Specifies whether the inventory is serialized or non-serialized. By default, it will be the same as that of the existing primary warehouse.

Initial Manager: The party who will be the initial manager of this warehouse, for receiving inventory and such. This user should be configured already as a warehouse manager.

Priority: Priority sequence of this warehouse versus other backup warehouse, 1 being the first backup warehouse to pull inventory from.

From Date and Thru Date are the dates when this warehouse will be active as a backup warehouse.

The system will create a new Warehouse, set it to be owned by the new owner party you just specified, and set your current organization as a "receive inventory for" party of this new warehouse. The initial manager will be the manager of the new warehouse. If the owner has a Shipping Location address specified, the system will make that the initial shipping origin and destination location of the warehouse. If not, it will look for a General Location. You can always edit the addresses and contact information of your warehouse later in the Warehouse application.
