Hi Guys, I want to uncheck Use Bins checkbox on Location record. as we are going to stop using that location for Bin. What are all things I need to consider before or after unmarking Use Bin checkbox for a location?

If you have used any bins in that location on transactions, you will not be able to uncheck use bins. Even if the bins are "empty" you cannot remove them from historical transactions.

How to uncheck then?

your best bet is to create a new location with out the bins. Change the name of the existing location

oh okay! only one way there is then? like just create new location and rename to this one and Inactivate this current location right?

correct

okay, cool! thank you Sean

no problem

Hi @Sean Murphy, I had a questions: 1. I can just inactivate the location and create a new location with same name and ID? but what about inventory adjustments, transactions, etc. Will there be a new internal id and are there any downstream effects for doing this?

You cannot create a new location with the same name as an Inactive location. you would have to rename the Inactivated one. as for the ID you have no control over that. So the answer to question 1 is no. To the 2nd question, putting everything in 1 bin, sure you could do that. I don't understand the use case for that. I would question why use bins at all at that point. It will add clicks to the users that don't provide any value to them or the company. But, that being said, sure you can do it.

okay,cool Thanks Sean!
