Locations

A location in Stokk is anywhere stock physically sits: a warehouse or a store. Every stock and sales record carries a location, and most reports can be sliced by it.

Location types

• Warehouse: central or regional. Receives from suppliers and ships to stores.
• Store: sells to customers. Replenished from a warehouse on a transfer schedule.

Where to manage them

Locations sync from your ERP automatically; Stokk creates one row per location it finds. Open Admin → Locations to:

• Set the type (warehouse or store)
• Set a default lead time in days: how long stock typically takes to arrive at this location
• For stores, pick the order day of the week the replenishment cycle runs on
• For stores, set a notification email and phone, used for transfer-arrival alerts and to prefill carrier shipping when you ship a transfer to the store
• For stores, set a shipping name and address (see below)

Store shipping address

Your ERP usually holds a store under an internal name (for example Akureyri) and a short location note, not a real postal address you can put on a shipping label. When you ship a transfer to a store, the carrier needs the name and address the store receives parcels under.

On Admin → Locations, each store has Ship name, Ship address, Postcode and Town fields. Fill these with the external name and postal address the store ships under (for example the ship name Dýrabær rather than the internal Akureyri). The transfer Ship via dialog then prefills the recipient from these values.

Leave a field blank to fall back to the ERP name and location. These fields live in Stokk only, so a re-sync from your ERP never overwrites them.

Why type matters

Type drives behaviour: stores get a daily replenishment draft; warehouses are where supplier-side purchasing happens. Misclassifying a location is the most common reason a site never gets replenishment proposals.
