Set up warehouses

Once you've created warehouses and linked them to your store locations, head to the Warehouses page under Settings to review and configure them.

This page is where you fine-tune how each warehouse appears and behaves across Sumtracker.

Reorder your warehouses

Use the Set Warehouse Ordering option to drag and reorder your warehouses.

This order applies everywhere in Sumtracker — dropdowns, lists, inventory tables, and reports — so set it in the way that makes most sense for your day-to-day operations. Typically, your primary fulfilment warehouse goes at the top.

Verify warehouse names

Click into each warehouse and check the Warehouse Code. This is the name you'll see across Sumtracker, so make sure it's something clear and recognisable to you and your team.

If you'd like to rename a warehouse, update the Warehouse Code and save.

Configure "Automatically stock new products"

Each warehouse has a setting called Automatically stock new products. This controls whether new products created on your store are automatically stocked at this warehouse.

  • On (Automatic): New products will be stocked at this warehouse by default.
  • Off (Manual): New products will not be stocked at this warehouse. You'll need to manually stock them when needed.
💡 Products that already have inventory are always stocked at the warehouse, regardless of this setting. This setting only affects new products being created.

When to keep it On: for your main fulfilment warehouses where you stock most of your catalog.

When to turn it Off: for warehouses that hold only a limited range of products — for example, a 3PL location that fulfils only a few SKUs, or a satellite warehouse for specific product categories.
