When storing the same item in different places
Example: Main warehouse, Floor 3 / Shelf B, retail store
When tracking the same item by status or condition
Example: Ready for sale, defective, refurbished
To add and manage your team's locations, go to Data Center > Locations.
When you first set up a team in BoxHero, one location is created by default. Adding locations is only available on the Business Plan, which includes up to 3 locations. If you need more locations, you can upgrade your plan by going to Settings > Billing.
You can see the total quantity of each item, as well as how many are stored in each location.
You can use the Group by filter to organize items by location or other attributes. You can also sort them alphabetically or by stock quantity, either from largest to smallest or vice versa.
When performing any of these inventory transactions, you'll need to select a location.
You can transfer items from one location to another and manage your items across multiple sites.
Location-specific user access permissions are not yet available. Currently, all team members can view all locations within a team. If you need to restrict access to certain locations, we recommend creating separate teams for each location.
Yes! You can receive low stock alerts for specific locations, and each member can set their own notification settings. Please navigate to Other Features > Low Stock Alerts.
No, inventory transfers are only possible within the same team. Each team operates independently, so you cannot move inventory between locations belonging to different teams.
A "team" is virtual workspace in BoxHero where all inventory items are managed collectively.
A "location" is a specific place within a team (e.g., storage areas, warehouses) where items can be stored or moved.
The standard Business Plan includes up to 3 locations within a single team, with the option to add more locations at an additional cost.
You can use BoxHero's Locations feature to manage multiple inventory categories within a single team. For example, you could create two locations—one for hats and another for gloves—within the same team. However, please note that this setup is a workaround and not the recommended approach.
Keep in mind that all inventory within a team is shared, so items from all locations will be visible in the Item List. If you need to manage inventory categories separately or control access to specific locations, we recommend creating separate teams for each category.
