Warehouses Warehouses Purpose and when to use this record Define the operating locations that own inventory, transactions, defaults, and warehouse-specific accounting activity. At a glance Identify it by: Name , and Warehouse # . Check its business context: Division , and Write-Off Account . Why care: Warehouse, item, unit, quantity, and cost must describe the same physical movement. A wrong warehouse or unit can make availability and valuation misleading. Before you begin You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on warehouses. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role. Create a warehouse The Warehouses create screen in the Brisk documentation demo. Create a warehouse after searching for the person, organization, item, location, or resource under alternate names and identifiers. Merge or correct an existing master record instead of creating a duplicate. Select the business context first: Division , and Write-Off Account . Enter the required identifying and operational values: Name . Review On Hold deliberately; these choices control availability or workflow rather than merely describing the record. Save the warehouse, then confirm Name , and Warehouse # on its detail page before continuing. After saving: Verify this warehouse in Accounts , Deposit Balancing Transactions , Deposits , and Expense/Asset Categories , plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate. Delete a warehouse Delete this warehouse only if it is an unused duplicate or setup mistake. Once other records refer to it, preserve that history and make the value inactive when the screen provides that option. Before confirming, check for related Accounts , Deposit Balancing Transactions , Deposits , Expense/Asset Categories , and Inventory Adjustments , plus the remaining screen fields. Brisk may refuse deletion when another record depends on this one; resolve the duplicate or use the supported correction workflow instead of breaking the trail. On the confirmation page, verify Name , and Warehouse # . After confirmation, return to the Warehouses list and make sure only the intended warehouse was removed. Review warehouse details The Warehouses detail screen in the Brisk documentation demo. Use the detail page as the shared record of what this warehouse currently means. Verify Name , Warehouse # , Division , and Description before relying on it for a decision. Follow Division , and Write-Off Account to determine whether the issue is on this warehouse or on one of those linked records. Next check: Verify this warehouse in Accounts , Deposit Balancing Transactions , Deposits , and Expense/Asset Categories , plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate. Find and review warehouses The Warehouses list screen in the Brisk documentation demo. Use the Warehouses list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare Name , and Warehouse # . Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different Division , and Write-Off Account . The initial order emphasizes Name . Select a column heading when you need a different comparison. Open the warehouse whose Name , and Warehouse # match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck the identifying information shown on the screen rather than creating a replacement immediately. Edit an existing warehouse Edit this warehouse to keep the same real-world party, item, location, or resource accurate. Do not repurpose it for a different entity after activity is attached. Open the detail page. Compare Division , and Write-Off Account with the supporting document or approved request. Recheck Warehouse # . These values are most likely to change warehouse availability, replenishment, quantities, and valuation. Save the change, return to the list, and confirm that the warehouse now appears under the expected Name , and Warehouse # . After the change: Verify this warehouse in Accounts , Deposit Balancing Transactions , Deposits , and Expense/Asset Categories , plus the remaining screen fields before staff build new activity on it; correct ownership, classification, and active state now rather than after transactions accumulate.
