I have to agree with Susan. The four character field size is too limiting. We have inventory in two or three different locations within one building, and also spread out between two other buildings. Because we sell/ship a large volume of certain items during the summer, we must build up stock levels. Therefore the product is stored wherever we can find the room. During the winter our stock levels decline and one location is often enough.

We also run into problems when we have an item in one location and the supplier changes packaging. Suddenly that item requires two locations until another area can be found.

I don't even use the pick sequence because of the location field size (though I would like to). We are hiring a new shipper and it would be much quicker to train him. As is, I'm using our old accounting system to print location sheets and most likely to do our inventory count at year end.

As much as I love the new system, this is it's one glaring shortcoming.
