The current warehouse

Almost everything in the module is read warehouse by warehouse: stocks, locations, operation types, operations, inventories. The question "which warehouse are you working in?" therefore comes up everywhere — and the module asks it only once.

One answer, for the whole application

The Warehouse selector sits in the top bar, next to the title of the screen. What you choose there holds for the whole module: no screen carries its own selector, and all of them follow that one. Changing warehouse from the dashboard therefore also reloads the locations, the operations and the inventories you will consult afterwards.

As long as no warehouse is retained, the screens display nothing rather than querying the server at random.

A memory attached to you

The choice is retained for your account, within your organization, and kept on the server side. You find it again when opening the module from another workstation or another browser, instead of being put back on the first warehouse of the list.

Nobody waits for that memory: as soon as the list of warehouses arrives, a warehouse is retained, and it is corrected afterwards if the memory of the server names another one — unless you have already changed warehouse in the meantime, in which case your gesture wins.

A remembered warehouse the organization no longer owns is simply ignored.

A preference, never a blocker

If the server manages neither to read nor to write that preference, nothing fails: the module makes do with the local memory. A convenience must not prevent a screen from being displayed.

Several tabs

If you work in two tabs and change warehouse in one, the other follows. It merely follows: it does not save that choice again, because it is reading somebody else's answer instead of giving one.

Organizations with a single warehouse

When the organization owns only one warehouse, the selector does not appear: a drop-down list with a single entry is a question with no answer to give. It disappears in the same way if the list of warehouses could not be loaded — an error message is then displayed on the screen concerned.

Some links, inherited from the former interface, still carry a warehouse in their address. Opening such a link adopts that warehouse once: it becomes the current warehouse, then the parameter disappears from the address. The link therefore imposes nothing lasting, and the navigation that follows starts again from your choice.
