Create a Warehouse Layout map
When Warehouse Locations are enabled, creating a Warehouse Layout map will assist in the picking process, by optimizing the sequence of items to be picked.
If you don't see your new locations within the list of Unmapped Locations, you may need to restart Acctivate.
Navigating the Warehouse Layout screen
- Warehouse - used to select the warehouse layout to view or manipulate
- Select (cursor) - used for selecting and moving map components
- Pan (arrows) - used to move the warehouse view around

Map Components
- Pathway - used to mark a path that can be traveled in either direction
- One-way Path - used to mark a path that can only be traveled in one direction
- Boundary - used for marking walls or other path blockers
- Place Locations - used to place all highlighted Unmapped locations evenly in a line
- Unmapped Locations
- Receiving - doesn't do anything; purely visual
- Packing - used as the starting an ending location for picklist route calculation
- All locations will place a point on the closest path
- Right-click options:
- Delete - removes the component from the layout. Locations will return to the Unmapped Locations list.
- This way - changes the path to a One-way Path. The direction will be set towards the half that you right/clicked
- Both ways - changes the path to a Pathway
- Split - converts the path or boundary to two of that component with a connected point in between
- Disconnect - separates the point at which two paths or boundaries are connected. Point removed will be for the half of the component that was right-clicked
- Length - visual; just shows the length of the component in feet
