Assign Properties to Bins

Users can apply properties to bins. When attempting to move an item to a bin, the property values associated with the item’s lot number and with the bin must match. If the property values do not match, the move will not be allowed.

When moving containers, ALL of the property values for the items in the container must match the bin property values.

JustFood will ignore any property codes that are not set up on both the bin and the item’s lot number.

The following pages display errors when you try to move an item or container to a bin where the property values do not match:

• Container Worksheet
• Item Journal
• Item Reclass. Journal
• Warehouse Put-away

• On the Properties page, Property Codes have been defined.

• Bins are defined for a location.
