is ther an option to have two shipping address for one location
e
Yes set them on the customer record. They will be available for selection on transaction drop downs.
s
im not understanding
e
Are you trying to have multiple ship to address for a customer record?
Or is this an actual location. If it's an actual location it will need to be a custom body field on the location then you will need to create custom fields on transaction(s) to source and store value + update printed forms accordingly.

we need this for a transfer order that we transfer to a 3rd party but sales are matched against it, the 3rd party has 2/3 address i want to use one lcation
e
There will need to be one Parent location such as Walmart then child locations of Walmart NYC, Walmart PA, Walmart FL etc.

Native NS does not support multiple addresses for single locations because it's bad practice.
s
can i try yhr cotsume filed option will that work ?
n
I like the Parent : Child location idea
e
No do not use the custom field idea. It's actually poor practice because it will break your reporting based on transfer orders and such

Can it really be one location if it has multiple addresses?
e
^ no lol.
s
no but it i add another location then on the item record we will have another location
e
Im assuming this is for consignment?
If so you should be running it as multiple locations and if your transfer orders are done correctly, inventory counts against the separate locations should wash out.
Plus, having the locations set accurately will enhance your reporting. Custom segments should not be used to override native functionalities.

thanks but it is npt an option to add another location even if the inv reporting would be more acrute
e
it's going to be terribly in accurate as you're going to have your entire inventory (which is really across 3 levels) bucketed into one location.
why is adding another location not an option?
