We need the ability to self-create locations (alpha-numeric), and designate the 'location type' to proceed. Initial location types: QC (Check-In), Staging Area, Picking Area, Back Stock.

Retail and Wholesale orders can be picked from any location (except QC/Check-In), back stock included. Allowing them to be able to pick from a Back Stock location type will casually force them to use /loc to move stock from back stock locations to picking area locations. They can move back stock to the bin number if they don't want to 'pick from back stock'. Users using designated back stock locations can generate a restock Picking Area sheet when they want to restock the pick and pack bins.

DE wants locations for their back stock. They have an excel file of back stock locations currently. I want them off excel files for anything as fast as possible, especially inventory management
