This screen allows configuration of Storage Location for a Storage Type. These Locations can be storage bins, dock door, forklift etc.
If a company location has sub locations, then storage locations will be for a sub location. Sub location has to be selected.

Relationship to third party warehouses:
To manage storage in third party warehouses, we will set up these warehouses as a sub-location of the basic location (profit center). To indicate locations within a warehouse, use the Storage Location field. Warehouses will also have to be set up as entities in order to process invoices. For some functionality like "warehouse rate matrix" we will require a linking of the sub-location warehouse (where the product is held) to the entity warehouse (where the bill is paid). This may be done on the warehouse rate matrix screen, pending a general analysis of how warehouse bills will be processed.
