Sublocation Management for Precise Inventory Control
If you need more granular visibility within a warehouse, Finale has the ability to create sublocations to allow accurate stock counts within a subset of the warehouse. Common naming conventions for sublocations include bin locations, aisles, or pallet spaces. For example, within Finale, you would quickly know you have a total of 6 pairs of jeans at the Reno warehouse with 4 pairs located in bin A1-1 and 2 located in bin D4-1.
