In this blog, we’ll walk you through how to configure and manage multiple warehouses in MaltiTask, with best practices and real-use cases. 

🚀 Why Use Multi-Warehouse in MaltiTask? 

Multi-warehouse support helps you: 

• 🌍 Operate from multiple locations 

• 📦 Allocate inventory efficiently 

• 🔄 Route shipments based on location 

• 🧮 Track stock levels separately per warehouse 

• 📊 Generate detailed location-based reports 

This is particularly useful for distributors, manufacturers, or retailers with different hubs across cities or countries. 

🛠️ Step 1: Enable Multi-Warehouse Feature 

Before configuring warehouses, make sure the option is enabled. 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Configuration > Settings 

Scroll to Warehouse section and check: 
✅ “Multi-Step Routes” 
✅ “Storage Locations” 

Click Save. 

🏢 Step 2: Creating a New Warehouse 

Now you can add multiple warehouses. 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Configuration > Warehouses > Create 

Fill in: 

• Warehouse Name (e.g., Malta Central) 

• Short Name (Used in reports and menus) 

• Address (if different from the main company) 

• Company (Select if using multi-company setup) 

💡 Pro Tip: Short codes help identify warehouses easily in reports. Use 2-3 letters like MLT for Malta, DXB for Dubai, etc. 

🔁 Step 3: Configure Routes for Each Warehouse 

Each warehouse can have its own incoming, outgoing, and internal transfer routes. 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Configuration > Routes 

You can assign: 

• Buy: for incoming products 

• Manufacture: if products are made internally 

• Dropship: direct shipment to customer 

• Replenish on Order (MTO): trigger automatic replenishment

🔄 Step 4: Stock Transfers Between Warehouses 

Transferring stock between warehouses is easy in MaltiTask. 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Operations > Transfers > Create 

• Operation Type: Internal Transfer 

• Source Location: First warehouse 

• Destination Location: Second warehouse 

• Enter product and quantity 

Click Validate to complete the transfer. 

📦 Step 5: Managing Stock Levels Per Warehouse 

You can view real-time stock levels by warehouse. 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Products > Products > On Hand 

From there, click a product → View Stock by Location 
You’ll see stock quantities split by each warehouse. 

📊 Step 6: Reporting & Warehouse Analysis 

MaltiTask provides detailed reports for each warehouse, such as: 

• Incoming/outgoing movements 

• Stock valuation by warehouse 

• Inventory aging per location 

• Forecasted stock 

📌 Path: 
Inventory > Reporting > Inventory Report 

Use filters like Warehouse, Location, or Product Category.
