Good to know
- A shelf code must be unique at its location and is saved in capital letters. Add Many Shelves skips codes that already exist and makes at most 500 shelves at once.
- Type: Quick Pick shelves are suggested first when packing orders; Damaged shelves are never suggested. Storage and New Goods are normal shelves.
- Max Items is the most units a shelf can hold; leave it empty for no limit. Usage shows how full the shelf is.
- A shelf that still holds stock cannot be deleted: move or remove the stock first, or make the shelf inactive. An inactive shelf keeps its stock but is not offered for new stock or packing.
- Deleting a section keeps its shelves, without a section.
- Needs the permission Racks & Shelves Setup.
