STEP 1

Review locations

Open Settings → Locations and inspect your existing locations.

  • Do not create a duplicate because a location’s display name changed.

STEP 2

Add or edit a location

Use the location controls to enter its name and address. Review the fulfillment options offered on the screen.

  • Use names your warehouse team can distinguish.
STEP 3

Assign inventory

Open Inventory and select the location. Verify which variants are stocked there and their quantities.

  • Use a transfer when moving existing physical stock between locations.
STEP 4

Check delivery

Review shipping origins and rates, then test an order for stock at this location.

  • Resolve stock and shipping eligibility before sending customer traffic.

CHECK YOUR WORK

You’re ready when…

  • Location addresses and stock are accurate.
  • The intended fulfillment location can serve a test order.

IF SOMETHING DOESN’T LOOK RIGHT

Troubleshooting

Why can’t I sell stock at a location?

Check the variant’s available inventory and the location’s fulfillment eligibility. Stock existing somewhere does not guarantee that checkout can ship it.

Why is a control missing or unavailable?

Confirm that you are in the correct store and that your role allows this action. Optional apps and channels may require installation, a plan, or activation. Share the screen name and error with support if access is still unclear.
