The Warehouse Code F/M is a security program that gives warehouse managers control over who has access to their warehouse stock. It is one of several programs used to set up multi-warehousing capabilities and controls. See also Warehouse F/M and Warehouse/Item F/M.
By default, the approval process for releasing an item so that it can be shipped from a warehouse is enabled for all users, unless the option to allow items shipped from other warehouses is set to unselected or the SO Static F/M flag Use Multiple Warehouses in SO is set to unselected.
Users can be authorized to initiate orders from a warehouse, and they can be given rights to ship from warehouses. Users without initiating rights in a warehouse will not be able to create orders, invoices or perform counter sales from that warehouse. Users without shipping rights in a warehouse will not be able to confirm orders in that warehouse.
Once line items have been entered in a sales order, the initiating warehouse may not be changed regardless of authorization level.
You can access this program from the Users button in Warehouse F/M (ICF970) or from SO Infrequent File Maintenances menu.
