Who can do what in Bin / Location Management

Separate warehouse preparation, inventory decisions and evidence reading.

How permissions work

Prepare the work

Inventory Clerk maintains the operational records and prepares stock requests and slotting plans. Posting and reservation actions handle protected stock effects.

Decide and correct

Inventory Supervisor reviews stock scope, decides submitted plans and uses the reversal, correction and reconciliation actions. Read access to the records supports those decisions without unrestricted record editing.

Read the evidence

Auditor follows requests, movements and operation receipts without changing their outcomes.

Maintain membership

App Administrator manages the operating organization and team members. Technical account maintenance remains separate from inventory approval.

Respect operating scope

Apply organization and user access when opening records, following document links and running actions. A filtered worklist supports navigation; authorization must also apply to the underlying operation.
