Published November 3rd, 20251 min read

inFlow recommends which sublocations to pick from based on the order’s location. When you fulfill an order, inventory is automatically deducted from the sublocations in that location.

You can also set preferences for which sublocations inFlow should prioritize when picking items.

Available picking options

The default sublocation, then sublocations with the highest quantity.	This option is useful if you want products to be picked from the sublocation with the highest quantity.
Non-default sublocations with the lowest quantities, then the default sublocation.	This picking option will select items from the sublocation with the lowest quantity first, followed by the sublocation with the next-lowest quantity.
