  2. Optional: press Add Section to group shelves by area, for example Ground Floor or Rack A. Type the Section Name (required), a Code and a Note, then press Save.
  3. Press Add Shelf for one shelf: Shelf Code (required, for example A-01-1), Name, Section, Type, Max Items and Note. Keep Active ticked and press Save.
  4. Press Add Many Shelves to make a whole rack at once: Prefix (for example A-), From No., To No., Digits and Levels / Shelves, with the Section, Type and Max Items. Preview shows the codes; press Add Shelves.
  5. Click a section on the left (or All Shelves, Without Section) to list its shelves. Type and Status narrow the list further.
  6. The list shows Shelf Code, Name, Section, Type, Items, Quantity, Max Items, Usage and Status. Action: View Contents, Edit, Print Label and Delete.
  7. Print Labels prints barcode labels for all shelves of the location, or of the chosen section, in 50 x 30 mm or 100 x 50 mm. Excel and Print export the list.

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.
