📋 Chapter: Storage Locations
In CIS mobile, storage locations are used to correctly book material stocks in the
context of service orders.
They define from which physical or logical inventory materials are withdrawn, transferred, or
ordered.
Configuration determines which storage locations are used for specific purposes – such as vehicle
inventories, transfer points, or central warehouses.

💡 Usage in the Application
- For material ordering, the delivery storage location is determined
automatically.
- During material transfers between vehicles or to/from the central warehouse,
storage locations define where and how the stock moves (e.g., movement type
311 ).
- Storage locations are also used when recording material consumption in work
reports.
- Vehicle-specific locations allow individualized inventory management per technician or vehicle.
- Placeholders like
XX* are dynamically replaced with actual vehicle numbers at
runtime.
