Manage your storage units (pallets, crates, etc)

Storage unit: where you store items for your customers, in the form of a container, crate, pallet, spread storage or other.

Once you've created your warehouses and storage bays, it's time for the next step: the storage units. These are the physical containers, crates, pallets, etc in your storage. In this step, create multiple storage units so they become available in the WMS.

Below is an example, where the WMS consists of 36 storage units used to store items.
