How to: Assign Default Bins to Items

If you are using bins at a location, assigning default bins to your items can make the process of shipping, receiving, and moving your items much easier. When a default bin is assigned to an item, this bin is suggested every time you initiate a transaction for this item. Default bins are defined in the Bin Content window.

To assign a default bin

  1. In the Search box, enter Bin Content Creation Worksheet, and choose the related link.

  2. Fill in the bin code and item information for each bin that you would like to set up as a default for an item. Make sure to select the Default field.

  3. When you are finished, on the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Create Bin Content. Default bins are now assigned for your items.

Note

When an item is put away, if the item does not have a default bin assigned, the bin where the item is put away is assigned as the default.
