Assign techs their default warehouse for use on Mobile Apps

If you are using TechPortal or TechService on Android for SME, you will need to assign the technician warehouse in the tech User. That way, when your tech adds stock from TechPortal or TechService on Android, SME will allocate stock from your technician's default warehouse, rather than the item's default warehouse.


To set a default warehouse for your technician:
1. Go to Setup module > Users
2. Click Search > Search Active Users and select the technician.
3. Click the Technician Settings tab. Locate the Warehouse field and select the warehouse you use for your technician's truck. (image below)
