# Bin Location

**Overview**

Go to **CAS** --> **Management** --> **Inventory Classification** --> **Bin Location**

A bin is a location that inventory is stored in within a warehouse or store. This will be displayed on reports and it assists in locating product in a large facility.

Bins can also be created from the Merchandise Receiving UI and the Commit Transfer UI, to be used as the items are received.

&#x20;**Details**

Each bin must have its own unique **Description*****.*** This will show up in all reports so you should name them carefully. If you try to create a bin with an existing name an error message is displayed.

Select the **Type** of destination from the drop down menu that the bin is to be created in.

Select the destination **Store/Warehouse** from the drop down menu.

Click Create to save.

**Access**

Access to this function at an enterprise level is limited by default to the System Administrator and Financial users only. Accounting, store managers, warehouse general managers as well as zone managers and human resource managers may modify bin location settings at Venues or Store assigned to them.<br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://retailcloud.gitbook.io/portals/central-administration-server-cas/untitled-1/inventory-classification/bin-location.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
