  • Click on the link (Name or Number) of the entry of your interest to enter the Data Entry page and see more detail. 
  • Use the Actions Menu to create a NEW Warehouse, modify (EDIT) or DELETE an existing one. 
  • Use BACK to return to the Summary page and CANCEL to revert any unwanted changes made to the Warehouses. 
  • Click on ACTIONS to discover other possibilities available for Warehouses.
  • Click on the Audit Log button to view a log of changes performed on displayed Warehouses.
