Description

Allow allocation to outbound order

Enabling this will allow a user to still add the inventory to an outbound order. This is useful if you want to prevent users from creating new inventory from the locked inventory, but you still want to be able to transfer it out of the facility.

Exclude the package quantity from global inventory totals

Enabling this will prevent the inventory quantity from displaying in the "global inventory" total. This is useful if a user in another facility should not expect the inventory to be available for them to request.
