1. Click on Add New Location.

2. Fill in the required details:

   • Location Name

   • Location Buffer

   • Location Code

   • Email

   • Phone

   • Location Address

This ensures the location becomes fully operational within OMS.

2. Modify the necessary fields.

3. Click Save to apply the changes.

   

Understanding Location Controls

1. Enable Toggle

• Enable → The location is active and can fulfill orders.

• Disable → The location will not be used for order fulfillment.

  • Inventory updates (Price/Quantity/Stock) will also not affect a disabled location.
    This is useful when a location is temporarily non-operational.

2. Online Toggle

This toggle decides whether inventory from a location should be visible to sales channels.

• Online → Inventory is pushed to sales channels.

• Offline → Inventory remains hidden from sales channels.

Brands use this feature to manage rush-hours or sale spikes.
Example:
If online locations run out of inventory, brands can bring additional stock from offline locations to continue order fulfillment without overselling.

3. Location Users

Each location can have multiple associated stakeholders (email users).
From this section, you can:

• View all assigned user emails

• Enable/Disable email users as needed

This helps manage who receives updates, alerts, and notifications for each specific location.
