Feature Request: Location field for items

We would like to request a field under items to store its physical location.

We have thousands of stock items which are stored on multiple shelves. Each shelf has a Location code and we would like to be able to store this code against items in square to make it easy for staff to locate the item when fulfilling orders.

Ideally this location information should be visible both in the POS when you scan/search an item and on online order printouts so that staff know where to pick the item from.

It would also be great to have the option to choose if multiple items can exist in the same shelf location or if an item can exist in multiple shelf locations.

The ability to use barcode scanning to assign items to locations would also be very handy.

 

Please don't confuse this with the ability to track items across different Physical (store) locations, although the ability to combine store and shelf location would also be very handy.

Hi @simonp,

 

Thanks for writing back in to our community and sharing your feedback about location tracking! 

 

I can definitely see how the ability to track an item's location in more detail would be useful to have, especially if you've got a large inventory stored in multiple different locations, or across a large warehouse. 

We appreciate you taking the time to post this feature request, as this helps other sellers add their voice if they're looking for the same functionality. Our product team also frequently checks the community for suggestions and feedback.

 

We'll update this thread if there's any updates on this feature becoming available.
