Warehouse / Inventory — Overview
This is where you define the warehouses (locations) where your product stock is kept. You enter the actual stock quantities inside the products themselves.
Where to find: Left menu → Catalog → Warehouse (Warehouses) Who it's for: Anyone who keeps their stock in more than one place (headquarters, branch, external warehouse) or needs to define at least one warehouse In short: This is where you define the warehouses (locations) where your product stock is kept. You enter the actual stock quantities inside the products themselves.
What is a warehouse?
A warehouse is the place/location where your product stock is. It can be a real warehouse (shelf, storage), or it can be a logical separation (e.g. "Main Warehouse", "Istanbul Branch", "Returns Warehouse").
If you sell/ship from more than one place, you define each one as a separate warehouse. The same product's stock can be distributed across different warehouses:
- Main Warehouse: 100 units
- Branch Warehouse: 50 units
- Total stock: 150 units
The "Main warehouse" (Default) concept
The first warehouse you create is automatically treated as the "Main warehouse" (default). The note on the empty screen says this too: "The first warehouse is automatically treated as the main warehouse. At least one warehouse is required for stock entry."
The main warehouse has these characteristics:
- A "Main warehouse" label appears next to its name in the list.
- It cannot be deleted (the delete option does not appear) — the system must always have a base warehouse.
- It is always active.
Important — What happens if you delete a warehouse? All product and variant stocks in that warehouse are automatically transferred to the Main warehouse. So stock is not lost, it is moved to the main warehouse. (Detail: Warehouse Management (List and Form))
The relationship between warehouse and stock (very important)
Understanding this distinction prevents confusion:
| Where is it done? | What is done? |
|---|---|
| This page (Warehouse) | You define warehouses (name, address). Stock quantity is not entered here. |
| Product form → "Warehouse Stocks" | You enter how many units of each product are in each warehouse. |
| Product list → ⋮ → Update Stock | You quickly update a product's stock on a per-warehouse basis. |
Summary: Warehouses are set up here, while product stocks are entered inside the products. When you define a warehouse, that warehouse automatically appears as a row in the "Warehouse Stocks" section of all products.
