Overview
The Multi Warehouse Allocation Rule feature on Mintsoft enables you to designate an Initial Warehouse for stock allocation, along with an Alternative Warehouse to serve as a backup if the initial warehouse is out of stock. For third-party logistics providers (3PLs), this can be configured on a client-specific basis.
This Multi Warehouse Allocation Rule function is applicable to all products. If you would like to set this up on a product-by-product basis, please refer to our help guide on Product Warehouse Allocations.
