Block a location when it must not be used, for example because of a damaged rack.

  1. Open the location and select Block.
  2. Enter the reason.

A blocked location is no longer suggested for put-away, and its stock is not allocated to pick lists. The stock remains on record.

To unblock it, open the location and select Unblock. In the location list you can filter the blocked ones.
