Sage 300 provides ‘Inventory Control’ module to maintain organization’s stock related data. It provides lots of features to maintain inventory data of a number of different domains like Manufacturing, Trading, Banking, Insurance, Automobile, etc. In this blog, we are going to discuss IC Location settings of Sage 300.

IC Location screen is basically used for creating ‘Locations’ in other modules of Sage 300 like OE and PO. Users can define the locations where the organization’s godowns, warehouse, etc. are located. For example, the organization has 4 godowns in ‘India’ where they have an inventory of their goods like ‘New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, and Punjab’. In that case, users can create locations as shown in above figures.

There are two types of locations the user can be defined.

  • Physical
  • Logical

Physical locations are those which exist like Cities as explained earlier. Logical locations are like Flights, Trains, Trucks, and Tempos. These locations are locations which are used while doing IC Transfer that is while doing a transfer of goods from one location to another location.

Ic Location has three types of tabs

  • Address Tab: Use the Address tab to enter the name, address, phone and fax numbers of the location, and to set the location’s status to inactive.
