Setup Guide: Warehousing & Storage

Configure your Warehousing & Storage hub from scratch using the ERPlora AI Assistant. All commands below are sent to the Assistant at /m/assistant/.

Notes

Logistics sector — standard VAT for warehousing and handling services. The warehouse can operate as a dedicated warehouse or as a third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse. Location management optimises space and reduces picking times. Regular stock counts with a handheld barcode scanner are essential for detecting discrepancies. Warehouse insurance must cover the value of clients' stored goods.
