Manage warehouses
A warehouse is a place where your stock lies. Propeller shows the stock of a product per warehouse, and a warehouse can also be a place where customers collect their order.
Before you begin
You need Backoffice access and the Logistics role. To create or delete a warehouse you need Owner access.
Add a warehouse
- Go to Shops & Channels > Warehouses and click New Warehouse.
- Fill in the General section.

| Name | The name of the warehouse, without spaces | Yes |
| Description | What the warehouse is, for example "Central warehouse Deventer" | Yes |
