What is the best way to set up location MAIN as the centralized warehouse in which items are purchased in Business Central?

For each vendor, on the Receiving FastTab, set the Location Code field to MAIN.

On the Inventory Setup page, select MAIN in the Location Code field.

Assign MAIN as the purchase location on the User Setup page for each purchaser.

On the Shipping FastTab of the Company Information page, select MAIN in the Location Code field.

How can you prevent users from posting item transactions with a blank location?

By setting up one or multiple locations. If at least one location is set up in Business Central, locations will be mandatory by default.

The first time that you use a location in a sales or purchase order, it automatically becomes mandatory.

Block the blank location by opening the location card for the unspecified (blank) location and then selecting the Blocked field.

On the Inventory Setup page, select the Location Mandatory field.
