Warehouses define where Trail Ridge Outfitters holds inventory — owned distribution centers, 3PL fulfillment nodes, and retail stores. Every receive, adjust, shipment, and on-hand balance is scoped to a warehouse.

​
Prerequisites

  • Select the correct organization in the sidebar switcher.
  • Create at least one active warehouse before receiving stock or viewing Stock on hand.

​
Open Warehouses

1

Navigate

  1. In the sidebar, open Inventory.
  2. Click Warehouses.
You can also reach warehouse setup from Settings → Operations. See Operations setup.

​
Location list

Search filters by name or code.

​
Location types

All types participate in on-hand tracking the same way. Type also sets the default warehouse for channels that have none configured — see Sales channels.

​
Create or edit a warehouse

Click a row or New warehouse to expand the editor: Click Create warehouse or Save changes when done.

​
Defaults

Two defaults can be set per organization — one Receiving, one Shipping: Rules:
  • Only one active location can be the receiving default.
  • Only one active location can be the shipping default.
  • A location can hold both badges (Trail Ridge sets Denver DC as receiving default and Shopify 3PL as shipping default).
  • You cannot deactivate the only active location in the organization.
  • You cannot delete a location that is still the receiving or shipping default — assign defaults elsewhere first.
Set defaults before your first bulk receive. Operators should not have to pick a warehouse on every receipt.

​
Example: Trail Ridge Outfitters

Inbound PO receipts default to Denver DC. Shopify Web orders ship from Reno 3PL. Shopify POS pickups relieve the Boulder store. Amazon FBA orders relieve AMZ-FBA when Amazon confirms shipment. When Trail Ridge adds a second 3PL, they create the location, leave it non-default until cutover, receive transfer stock, then switch the Shipping default.

Troubleshooting

adorabl allows one receiving default per organization. Clear the existing default or move it to another location first.
You cannot deactivate the only active warehouse. You cannot delete a location that is still a receiving or shipping default.
Check Default receiving on Warehouses. Operators can still override the warehouse on each receipt.
Confirm at least one Stock item exists and you have received quantity into an active warehouse. See Stock on hand.
Label quotes need a full street, city, region, postal code, and country on the ship-from warehouse. When an order has an assigned warehouse with an incomplete address, adorabl names that warehouse and stops — it does not quote from a different location. Orders with no assigned warehouse fall back to the first warehouse with a complete address. See Shipping labels.
