Set up manufacturing for the warehouse

Completed

In a location that is set up with directed put-away and pick, each item transaction is processed by bin. Specifically, before you can post consumption, you need to first pick the components in the warehouse and then move them to the production zone.

When you post output, the finished items are automatically placed on the from-production bin. To make the finished items available for picking, you need to move them into the warehouse.
