Q: I have 2 multi stores at 2 different locations. I want to know if it’s possible to have a warehouse inventory at each of those stores/locations. I want that inventory separate from the store inventory and be able to transfer to the store inventory when I need it.
EMS: You can create virtual warehouses by increasing the number of locations at HQ and naming them. You can then transfer out of the warehouse to the store at HQ. We do this quite a bit in the winery industry as they have bonded storages, etc.
Q: Can you please tell me how to create virtual warehouses? I love the idea but can’t figure out how to do it, it’s exactly what I need.
EMS: Sure, go to company preferences and click on multi-store/store exchange. In that box you can select the number of locations. Select 4 and then you can set up codes etc. for the 2 new locations.
