Type: Enum

Type of warehouse location

Values

Value	Description	Deprecated
AISLE	A gangway running between racking within a zone; groups the racks along it, and sits one level above RACK.
BIN	The finest-grained location: a single pick face, box or tote on a shelf. The leaf of the storage hierarchy, with nothing nested below it.
GOODS_IN	The receiving dock. Inbound deliveries are booked in here (a RECEIVED movement) before being transferred into the rack hierarchy.
GOODS_OUT	The dispatch area. Picked stock is moved here to wait for the carrier, and leaves the site from here (a SHIPPED movement).
PRODUCTION	Point-of-use storage on the shop floor rather than in the warehouse; material issued to a job lands here (an ISSUED_TO_PRODUCTION movement).
QUARANTINE	A segregated area holding stock that must not be issued — awaiting inspection, or failed. Kept off the normal hierarchy so it is not picked by accident.
RACK	A single racking bay or shelving unit standing in an aisle; the parent of the individual shelves it is divided into.
SHELF	One horizontal level within a rack — the smallest location that still holds several bins.
STAGING	A holding area outside the rack hierarchy where stock waits between operations — marshalled for a job, or landed but not yet put away.
WAREHOUSE	The top of the storage hierarchy: a whole site or building, normally parentless, with every other location hanging beneath it. Also the type a location takes when none is supplied.
ZONE	A named area inside a warehouse — the first subdivision below the site, and the usual parent of aisles.
