Okay, I used to use this program long ago when I was doing ebay for a business. Hense I took a break and am now back to it. During the time of my break, I moved a couple of times and everything is messed up in my inventory and not organized. I'm setting up a new storage location set up but need to zero all of the inventory levels first. Now I know I can go item by item, but is there a quicker way? 1237 items would take a while..

Karl,
"Qty in Stock" cannot be edited in bulk. You can edit the Storage location by going to "Record | Edit storage location" and deleting the Storage location you no longer need. That field will contain no value on any affected Inventory Items. You already know you can add whatever Storage locations you want.
But for you it really isn't too big of an issue. You have to change the Storage locations anyway. So while you are changing storage locations, you can change the "Qty in Stock" I know the Storage locations can be changed in bulk but since you have not listed in a long time, you might want to consider re-doing some descriptions and freshen up the look. Just a thought.
You might also consider just start putting in new Inventory Items. Then you can go through the Inventory more slowly making adjustments or making the Inventory Item inactive. Once inactive you can use the Advanced Archive options so the record will be removed the next time your archive.
I'll get back to you concerning the old program and the new program.

Karl,
You go now!! You are speedy!
Boy howdy, plan big. The first time we set up the Storage locations, we didn't plan big enough or organize deeply enough. So within a year we had to re-do. And you would think we learned. But oh no not us.
So we had to re-do our storage locations again. And here we are, in the past 30 days re-doing them one more time. Third time is a charm. I think we got it.

Judy,
I have been there before, it isn't any fun. I live in a 4000 sq ft warehouse which I turned part of it into a house and the rest is workshops and stuff. I'm working with an expandable storage idea and will see how it goes. It will be interesting but fun also.

Karl,
How cool!! We turned a huge two story Amish style barn into a house. What fun to do. And challenging.
Keep us all posted on the progress. You might come up with the ultimate Storage location plan!!

Judy,
It is a pretty basic plan actually. I use cardboard trays on sheilfs like probably pretty much everyone else. But instead of labeling each tray with what is in it, I gave it a number. When I need more space, I add more shelving and just move the boxes in order. Each item in the program that I am selling goes by the tray number it is located in, as the tray gets empty I just use it for something else by putting that tray number on the new item and put it in the tray. Not fully sure how it is going to work, but for now it looks like it should. Don't have to keep changing the discription on the tray, it just stays its number.

Karl,
The URL gremlins have been running around on the board
We use Pallet racking and shelving. Each unit is labeled with an Alpha numberic identifier. We use bins for small stuff. And the number we put on it is the Inventory Item number generated by AW2K. When the Packing slips are printed they contain Storage location, Auction id, Auction title and the Inventory Item number.
Items are labeled with the stock Inventory Item number, Auction title line and storage location. So between the cross checks there should not be incorrect items pulled for a buyer. Or one would think so anyway

I did it simular to that before but found that when I moved it totally messed everything up. Granted when I get up to the level you are at, then I will probably have to work something else out. Right now this is going to be pretty much a one man operation with the help sometimes of my girlfriend right now. I know once I start having helpers and things like that, I will have to have it alot more detailled. Lots of room for improvements tho so that is good.

Karl,
Actually if you have all the product in one facility, one room, what you are doing will work pretty good. We did about the same thing until the Internet starting take over the warehouse and backstock areas. Then we had to do something else.
I hope your Internet business explodes and you need to hire people. That would mean good things!!!
