When we went live, we decided to only set up several warehouses in each facility and each warehouse only had 1 bin. This was a huge improvement from our legacy system where each facility was only 1 warehouse. Cycle counting was a mess if you can imagine.
We are ready to make the next step of creating multiple bins in each warehouse for better material traceability. We ran across Warehouse Zones in this process.
I’m curious who uses warehouse zones and what is the benefit. Right now I can’t see to find how they would be helpful. Our bins are mainly in production areas so we aren’t shipping product from any of them. If there isn’t a good reason to use them, I would rather not set them up and have to maintain them.
