- They can be the loading and unloading area of your warehouse, a shelf or a department, etc.
Customer Location: Virtual location representing the destination location for products sent to your customers
Inventory Loss: Virtual location serving as counterpart for inventory operations used to correct stock levels (Physical inventories)
Procurement: Virtual location serving as temporary counterpart for procurement operations when the source (vendor or production) is not known yet. This location should be empty when the procurement scheduler has finished running.
Production: Virtual counterpart location for production operations: this location consumes the raw material and produces finished products
Transit Location: Counterpart location that should be used in inter-companies or inter-warehouses operations
The Virtual Locations are places that do not exist, but in which products can be placed when they are not physically in an inventory yet (or anymore). They come in handy when you want to place lost products out of your stock (in the Inventory loss), or when you want to take into account products that are on their way to your warehouse (Procurements).
