In some cases we are doing ad hoc moves from a source location to a Pick and/or a Bulk location.

These Pick and Bulk locations have settings how many items can be put on that location. A minimum stock and a maximum stock.

If we are going to move these items, it would be nice to know how many items we still can move.

For example on the source location I have 500 items. On the destination location we have 200 and the maximum is 400.

In that case it would be nice to see I can only move 200 to that destination location. It does not have to be mandatory to take that amount. But it is good to know how many is the maximum.

In this case if items are in boxes of 250, you know you don't have to bring the whole box to that location, because only 200 fit. In that case the user must still have the possibility to put only 200 to the location or choose another location.

Hi Ronald,

The problem is that the most used WMS Adhoc Move flows are designed in a way that quantity is always selected prior to location, then there is no way of knowing the destination location at the time of inserting the quantity.

The logic should be reversal, select a quantity and receive a suggestion of where this quantity fits better within the available warehouse locations of our warehouse.
- This can be achieved by a Hookflow Script. I am not sure 100% but if I remember well the PutAwayDestinationLocationHookScript is called in the Adhoc move flow. Here is https://support.boyum-it.com/hc/en-us/articles/7292913095325-How-to-make-custom-bin-location-list-in-Put-Away based on an SQL View.
- With the Customization Framework evolution from 2025.06 https://www.notion.so/boyum-it/Customization-Framework-3-sort-and-or-truncate-at-Select-from-a-list-screens-types-198be94de47e80d5be34e908ac76ebb2 you will also be able to filter the list of locations based on an SQL Query, there you have as parameters the $[Prev1.edtCounter0]=7 which means that 7 units where selected to be moved and using the query we could only show destinations locations where there is enough space for 7 units.
- From more complex put away strategies we suggest http://wiki.produmex.name/doku.php?id=implementation:wms:functional_guide:put_away_strategy Stay tunned at articles and Boyum media because soon we will publish an example of how to use it in a complex scenario.
