Warehouse

Each warehouse in your network will have independent data for employees, inventory, kits, orders, and transfers. Within the main warehouse properties settings, you will set an independent address, manager, and return address (optional) for shipping and management purposes.

Separate Return Address

Each warehouse within SKUSavvy has an optional return address, in the case that you are returning to a centralized warehouse. Enable this by checking the box at the bottom of the warehouse property settings.

A different return address changes the address printed on your shipping labels

When you connect Shopify each of your locations sync over as warehouses within SKUSavvy. Inventory currently held within Shopify will also be brought over into the warehouse - though you still need to allocate that inventory to bin locations for it to become active available inventory within SKUSavvy.

If you create a warehouse before connecting Shopify, you must link your warehouses to Shopify locations during step 4 of the connection process.

At the core of every warehouse within SKUSavvy is a visual warehouse layout tool. This enables you to add shelves, bins, levels, conveyance, walls, docks, packing tables, staging, and more on one grid layout. More specifically this will help you visually locate inventory, orders to fulfill, bin to bin replenishment tasks, and to pick routes.

Layout Tool Interface

To create a new layout, there are a few things to keep in mind. Here are some of the main elements to know about the interface and how it is best used.

• 1) View layout in 3D (not available in edit mode)

• 2) View warehouse bin locations according to whether or not they have products within them or not

• 3) Level of the warehouse you are viewing (think of this as shelf level). Each bin is held on a level of a shelf so one level to another on the same shelf can have different bin sizes (or you can use the bulk tool to copy a bin level to another level on that shelf)

• 4) Edit Button - must be selected before you can move and add anything to the layout

• 5) Zoom in or out - this can also be done by using the zoom in or out similarly to Google Maps, you can also pinch to zoom on mobile

• 6) Information panel which shows shelf details, bin details, or area details

• 7) Selecting a shelf will show all bins on the shelf. Once a shelf is selected, you can click again to select the bin

• 8) Drag the canvas to move where you focus. If you are in edit mode and grab a shelf or bin, you will move the item

Edit Mode

Once you hit the edit button everything on the layout becomes movable. If you select a shelf, you will be able to resize it, move it, or change the shelf information.

Edit Mode Interface

On the lower right side of the canvass are five helpful tools for creating new elements for your warehouse. Follow the guide below to learn about the SKUSavvy visual warehouse layout creator.

• 1) Choose to show all bins or just filled/empty bins. Select a level of your layout to view - each 'layer' is one shelf level in a top down view, select a level to view bins on that level across all of you shelf units.

• 2) 'Cancel' your edits or 'Update' and save edits

• 3) Information panel showing relevant information for a selected shelf, bin, area, wall/door

• 4) View information specific to the selected element (brings you to that elements detail page for instance to view/move inventory from this bin to another bin)

• 5) Rotate the selected object 90 degrees clockwise

• 6) Delete the selected element

• 7) Currently selected element (highlighted in red) select and drag on the edges of the element to change the size

• 8) Show/hide information panel

• 9) Drag/pan and select elements on the map with this tool engaged

• 10) Create a Shelf or Bin - shelves hold bins, bins will be drawn on top of a shelf and on the level currently selected. Shelves have levels which correspond to the next layer up, you must set the level and update the layout before placing a shelf on that level (you can duplicate bins from one level to another on the shelf)

• 11) Create an area which can represent anything in your warehouse that does not hold pick inventory. Areas can hold purchase orders that have arrived but have not been checked-in

• 12) Create wall/door to indicate boundaries or interior walls

• 13) Bulk duplicate bins on one level of a shelf to other levels on that shelf

Bulk Bin Creator

• 1) Select a 'Shelf' then click on the duplicate icon

Enable/Disable Picking from a Bin

Within the bin 'Info' page you can optionally mark a bin as pickable or not pickable. When a bin is non-pickable any inventory in that bin will not show on the pick screen and the big will be ignored when you are going through a pick route.

To place items around the warehouse layout you've setup within SKUSavvy you can utilize a few different methods: scan to bin, directly place to bin, or transfer to bin.

NOTE: You must navigate within a warehouse to allocate inventory to that warehouse

Scan to Bin

• 1) On mobile the scan button is on the bottom right of the nav menu, press it to bring up the barcode scanner. On desktop, the scan button is on the bottom left

• 2) Focus the barcode across the red line that appears on your device screen

• 3) After a successful scan, select the bottom option to 'Adjust Inventory'

• 4) Type or scan a bin barcode to allocate item quantity to that bin

• 5) Enter a quantity you are checking into this bin

• 6) View existing locations and quantity of this item within the warehouse

Allocate Directly to Bin

To allocate items to a bin, navigate to a warehouse, then select 'Inventory' where you can adjust the inventory for that warehouse.

Once here you will find the same interface as if you had scanned an item and selected the 'Adjust Inventory' option.

• 1) Select or scan a product and variant to add to a bin

• 2) Click 'Add'

• 3) Select or scan the bin you want to allocate inventory to

• 4) Enter the quantity you are adding

• 5) Click 'Add to Bin'

• 6) View existing bin locations and corresponding inventory level for this item

• Save your changes

At first, you will be selecting the shelf, and the second click will be the bin itself. From here, you can click 'Bin Info' which will take you to the bin where you can allocate inventory similar to the methods above.

• 2) Select the shelf first, then the bin (2-clicks)

• 3) View the bin information (pull out the info panel)

Every bin or entire shelf made up of bins can be printed out with a label quickly within the visual layout manager.

From this screen you can select multiple barcodes, or print all barcodes at once.

• 1) Select what information should show on the label

• 2) Print all available bin barcodes

• 3) Print the individual barcode label
