Create Rack Locations 📖

Rack Anatomy

<aside> 💡 In HQ Warehouse Racks are comprised of their Row, Bay, and Level. Each of these has a label that combines to create the individual Location Tags within each aisle of racking.

</aside>

Each shelf (LEVEL) is labeled with a letter. They are found on the rack (BAY) 01. Many bays containing their own levels may exist in (ROW) A.
