Set up aisles, rows, and bins in your warehouse, then print and label three barcodes for each bin ("Clear Inventory," "In," and "Out") to streamline inventory tracking and organization.
Setting up bins for your inventory is an effective way to map the exact location of your items within the warehouse, improving organization and efficiency. If you choose to implement this system, you’ll need to set up aisles, rows, and bins within your warehouse and print specific barcodes for each bin. These barcodes will help you track inventory movements, including actions for "Clear Inventory," "In," and "Out."
