How warehouses and outlets differ
Web
Updated Aug 2026
RushFlow separates storage warehouses from selling outlets, so you know whether stock is on a shelf ready to sell or in a stockroom. Each holds its own quantities, and you move stock between them with in-transit control.
The difference
- Outlet — where you sell; the POS deducts from its stock
- Warehouse — storage; holds stock that isn’t on the shop floor
- Stock moves between them via transfers, tracked in transit
Where to find it
Web: add and manage locations in your branch/warehouse settings. App: Inventory workspace → inventory locations.
Separating storage from selling keeps “what can I sell right now?” honest.
