A location is a core concept in the inventory management module. It represents a specific location inside or outside a warehouse used to store products or materials. Locations can be used to represent different areas in physical space, such as different parts of a warehouse, shelves, storage cabinets, etc. They can also represent logical separations, such as supplier locations, customer sites, or virtual inventory partitions.
