Warehouse Setup / Area Zone Maintenance / Bin Zone Management - WHS004
Zones are typically used to direct the storage of products. Zones can exist within an Area or span across multiple Areas. For instance, if you require allergen products to be stored in a specific area of a warehouse you would allocate this as a Zone and link the required stock codes to that Zone.
Zones are located on the Main Menu under WMS Menu / Warehouse Setup / Area Zone Maintenance / Bin Zone Management.
The two pre-configured default Zones created are:
· PICK Zone
· RECV Zone
Note: Zones are linked to Bins and are required for your Bin Import. For more information on creating Bins and Bin locations visit - Create Single Bins

To create more Zones, you must open the window under WMS Menu / Warehouse Setup / Area Zone Maintenance / Bin Zone Management
As per your warehouse blueprint, each Zone must be labeled with a Zone code and description.
To create your first additional Zone, click on the grey line at the bottom of the data grid.
You can move between the fields by using your TAB key.
Fill in the required fields below:
Zone refers to your Zone code. There will be two default zones already created. Example: Zone code = PICK
Description is the description of your Zone code. Here you type in your Description. Example: Description = A Zone
Sequence refers to the sequence of the put away logic when offloading a newly received pallet with multiple SKUs on it
Once you created all your Zones you can select Apply at the bottom of the Window. This will save your Zones.
If you close the Zone Window and open it again you will notice that your Zones have been created.
