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 for price, quantity, or stock will also not affect a disabled location.
    This is useful when a location is temporarily non-operational.

2. Online Toggle

The Online toggle determines whether inventory from a location is 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 sales 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, such as email users.
From this section, you can:

• View all assigned user emails.

• Enable or disable email users as needed.

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