General
Currency, timezone, defaults, SKU series and location codes
Organization-wide settings that everything else inherits from. Requires settings:tenant.
Regional
- Base currency - the currency your reporting is expressed in. Warehouses can trade in others; see Multi-currency purchasing.
- Timezone - what "today" means for reports, cutoffs and scheduled jobs.
- Locale and date format.
Defaults
Applied to newly created records, not retrospectively:
- Default tax rate for new items
- Default unit for new items
- Other defaults for new orders
Changing a default does not touch anything that already exists. Fix existing records with a bulk edit or a CSV import.
SKU number series
Turn this on and new items get a sequential SKU suggested automatically, which you can still override. Worth doing before you create your catalogue - retrofitting an SKU scheme later means changing codes that are already printed on labels and shelves.
Number series also exist for sales orders (SO-), purchase orders (PO-), shipments (SH-) and goods receipts (GR-). These are created during onboarding.
Location code format
Controls what a valid pick location looks like, and what Assign to location will accept:
| Format | Accepts | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Numeric | Digits and separators | 2-1-1 |
| Alphanumeric | Letters and digits | A-01-03 |
| Any | Anything | whatever you already use |
Pick one that matches the labels already on your shelves. Setting it stricter than reality means valid locations get rejected at the scanner.
