Multi-warehouse and bin locations
If you stock product yourself before sending it to Amazon, or run a hybrid FBA/FBM operation, multi-warehouse is for you. Hilal lets you configure any number of warehouses and tracks stock at the warehouse level. You can import bin location metadata for your own tracking and reference.
In this guide:
- Add a warehouse
- Receive stock into a warehouse
- See per-warehouse stock in lists
- Bulk import and export warehouse stock
Prerequisites
- Professional+ plan or feature-enabled. Multi-warehouse is not available on Free or entry-level plans.
Step 1: Add a warehouse
Warehouses are managed via the Vendors section under Supply Chain. Click Supply Chain → Vendors and select the Warehouse tab to manage warehouse locations.
Click Add Vendor to create a new warehouse. Fill in the warehouse details and set the vendor type to Warehouse.
Step 2: Receive stock into a warehouse
Stock can enter a warehouse from:
- Purchase orders — when you mark a PO as received, stock is added to the warehouse you specify. → Purchase orders
- Inter-warehouse transfers — moving stock from one location to another. → Inter-warehouse transfers
Step 3: See per-warehouse stock in lists
In the Stock view (Inventory → Inventory), you’ll see a Warehouse Qty column for each product. Click the Warehouse Qty value to expand the warehouse breakdown showing your stock distributed across all warehouses:
The warehouse breakdown displays:
- Warehouse — warehouse or location name.
- Quantity — current stock in that warehouse.
Step 4: Bulk import and export warehouse stock
To import or export warehouse stock, click the toolbar menu (top-right of the inventory list) → Import / Export Stock:
Import Stock:
- Upload a file with warehouse and product identifiers (ASIN, SKU, UPC), status, bin location, batch, dates, and quantity.
- Hilal validates the data and processes the import.
- Track progress in the import job status.
- View Previous Imports to see previous uploads with success counts and error details.
Export Stock:
- Export your current warehouse stock to a file for analysis, backup, or external system integration.
After import completes, warehouse stock levels update immediately.
Troubleshooting
- “Multi-warehouse not in your plan.” Upgrade to Professional+ or higher. This feature is not available on Free or entry-level plans.
- Stock totals don’t match. Total stock = FBA + every custom warehouse. If a warehouse looks short, check for an unposted PO or a pending transfer.
