If your company uses multiple warehouses or yards, you can assign pieces to specific facilities:
- When adding or editing a piece, select the Facility field.
- Choose the storage location.
- Use facility filters on the inventory list to see pieces at a specific location.
See Company Management > Facilities for setup instructions.
