Material flow modules

Refactoring of stock areas

• stock areas will now be in fact: locations
• a location will have two types:
  • control point
  • warehouse - its also a control point but of a special type, here we keep track of resources

So we have to replace everywhere the term stock area by location.

Separations to modules

Influences

• what to do when transferring from simple control point to warehouse ? null warehouse attributes in batch ?
• functions that require resources must always filter out simple control points in their lookup and have validators that do not allow them
• resources cannot be created for control points
• change the term stock area to location in GUI (and in data model if we have time)
