Advanced facility location model

[Rashko Rejmer]

Hi all,

In the current model there is possibility to specify only few parameter
that describe the inventory items location in a facility(area, aisle,
section, level, position). I need to organize possible facility
locations with more parameters - 10 for example.

Has anybody stumbled upon a similar problem? What would be the best way
to extend the existing model to support more location parameters?

Thanks in advance,
Rashko Rejmer

Just add more fields to the FacilityLocation entity.

Hi David,
Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of more global and flexible
solution, that will give me possibility to add more parameters during
production run, but you are right - your approach is faster and easier.
