Set up a centralized warehouse
If a company has a head office or a main warehouse in which most of the items are purchased, produced, or assembled, and are then transferred to other warehouses that operate as distribution centers from which sales orders are shipped to the customers, the company follows the centralized distribution policy.
To set up the centralized warehouse, follow these steps:
Select the Search for Page icon in the upper-right corner of the page, enter company information, and then select the related link.
Expand the Shipping FastTab.
In the Location Code field, select the location that operates as the centralized warehouse.
Close the Company Information page.
The preceding image shows that MAIN is now the centralized warehouse, meaning that Business Central will use the MAIN location on purchase orders for which no locations are set up on the vendor card or Responsibility Center card.
