Warehouses and Locations

Organize where each device is physically located

The warehouse system lets you know at all times where each device is: which warehouse, zone, shelving unit, shelf, and slot. Ideal when you're managing many devices at once. That's why it shows as "Device Warehouses" in the menu — parts stock lives in a different warehouse type, under the Sales section (see the Items / Parts and Warehouse topic).

1

Create warehouses

Add one or more warehouses (e.g., store and storage room), each with its own code, and mark which one is the main one.

2

Define zones

Within each warehouse, create zones with any name and color you like (e.g., Reception, Workshop, Repaired) — it's not a closed palette, you pick the exact color.

3

Add shelving and shelves

Each shelving unit belongs to a zone and has several shelves; each shelf carries a size category (from XS-phones to XXL-large equipment) and its number of slots, so every device gets an exact spot.

4

Assign and locate

From the repair record (or when registering the device) you assign its exact physical location. Generate QR labels for each location and use the map and global search to find any device instantly.

Use the global location search to find a free slot of the right size when storing a new device.

Automatic zone suggestion

When assigning a location, Sattotal suggests zones whose name matches the repair's current status (e.g. it proposes "Workshop" if it's in repair) — a shortcut, not a real automatic assignment.

Real-time occupancy

The warehouse list shows total, occupied and free slots with a color-coded progress bar (green → amber → red as it fills up), plus occupancy charts per warehouse and per size category.

Who, when, and from where

Every time a repair's physical location is assigned or changed, it's logged with who did it and when, in a location movement history — separate from the status change history.
