Business value

To speed up order handling, we have extended support for bins in the jobs capabilities so that warehouse workers can find items more easily.

Feature details

Bins are basic storage units in warehouses. For locations that use bins, Business Central uses a system of default bins to support warehouse handling tasks. When a user creates a job planning line or a job journal line and specifies the item number and location code, the default bin is automatically suggested. Users can choose a different bin by using the Lookup action to open the Bin Content page. The page shows the default bin, fixed bins, and bins that are temporarily used to store items.

The Location Code and Bin Code fields are not available by default, but users can easily add them through personalization.
