Locate Feature

The Locate feature helps warehouse users quickly find inventory without navigating through multiple inventory screens. Users can scan a barcode or search using identifiers such as SKU, UPC, serial number, pallet ID, or LPN to view the item’s current storage location.

Locate currently tracks inventory in two statuses: Pending Put Away and In Storage. It also provides an inventory summary, including on-hand, available, committed, and receiving quantities, helping users understand both the location and availability of an item.

How to Use the Locate Feature

The locate feature can be accessed in two ways.

1. Click on Locate on the side panel
