The **Stock & Locations** page lets you record the places where you hold stock, such as a warehouse, a shop or a supplier, and see how much of each product is held at each one. You'll find it under **Strengthen → Commerce → Stock & Locations**.

## Before you start

Stock & Locations is part of Catalogue. It only appears if your package includes stock locations or stock reports, and your role has permission to view them. What you see on the page depends on your permissions:

- If you can view locations, you'll see the **Locations** panel.
- If you can view stock reports, you'll see the **Stock report** panel.
- If you can create locations, you'll see **Add location**.
- If you can update locations, you can edit locations and change quantities in the report.

If the page or a panel is missing, ask a subscription administrator to check your package on [Package and add-ons](/account-and-access/package-and-add-ons) and your permissions on [Users, teams, groups and permissions](/account-and-access/users-teams-groups-and-permissions).

## The Locations panel

The **Locations** panel lists every stock location in name order, showing its name, its code and whether it is **Enabled** or **Disabled**. If there are none yet, it shows **No results**.

### Adding a location

1. Go to **Strengthen → Commerce → Stock & Locations**.
2. In the **Locations** panel, select **Add location**.
3. Enter a **Name**, for example "Main warehouse".
4. Enter a **Code**, for example "MAIN". Each location needs its own code, so you can't reuse a code that another location already has.
5. Choose a **Status**: **Enabled** or **Disabled**. New locations start as **Enabled**.
6. Select **Save**. The location appears in the list. Select **Cancel** to close the form without saving.

### Editing a location

1. Select **Edit** on the location's row. The form opens below the list, headed **Edit**.
2. Change the **Name**, **Code** or **Status**.
3. Select **Save**.

There is no delete option for locations. If you no longer use a location, set its **Status** to **Disabled**.

## The Stock report panel

The **Stock report** panel shows the stock recorded against your locations.

At the top you'll see three totals:

- **Quantity**: the total quantity across everything in the report.
- **Products**: how many different products have stock recorded.
- **Locations**: how many locations have stock recorded.

Below the totals is a list with one row for each product at each location, showing the product's SKU, the location's name and the quantity. The report shows 50 rows at a time. When there are more, use the previous and next arrow buttons at the bottom of the panel to move through the pages.

A product only appears in the report once it has a quantity recorded at a location. Locations with no stock recorded don't appear in the report, although they still appear in the **Locations** panel. The page has no option to add a product to a location; it lets you review and correct quantities that are already recorded.

### Correcting a quantity

If you have permission to update locations, each quantity is shown as an editable box. Quantities can include decimals.

1. Find the row for the product and location.
2. Type the new quantity into the box.
3. Select **Save** on that row.

Each row is saved on its own, so select **Save** on every row you change before leaving the page. The totals refresh after each save.

## How this relates to a product's stock field

Products created with the default template also have a **Stock** field on their **Price and Stock** tab, which drives the **Out of stock** count on the Products page. That field is recorded on the product itself, separately from the location quantities on this page, so the two figures won't necessarily match. If they disagree, check both places. See [Managing products](/strengthen/catalogue-products).

## Troubleshooting

### I get an error when saving a location

Check that both **Name** and **Code** are filled in and that no other location already uses the same code.

### A product is missing from the Stock report

The report only lists products that already have a quantity recorded at a location, and this page can't add new ones. If you expected a product to be listed, contact support.

### I can see quantities but can't change them

Changing quantities needs permission to update stock locations. Ask a subscription administrator.
