Locations are the warehouses and stores where your inventory items are kept. Turn them on when you run more than one warehouse, have retail stores that double as pickup points, or need to know which building an item is in. Supercycle uses Shopify’s locations, so your existing Shopify locations are available in Supercycle for inventory management. Turn locations on under Logistics and locations.

​
Default location

A new item starts at your shop’s default location unless you set a location when you create it. Items you add with Add inventory or Import start there too. To check which location it is, open the Default location card under Logistics and locations.

Find your shop's default location.

Change your default location in Shopify:
1

Open Shopify locations

Go to Locations.
2

Change the default location

Under Default location, select Change. Select the location, then select Save. Supercycle shows the new location.

​
Set up locations

​
Set up locations in Shopify

1

Open Shopify locations

Go to Locations.
2

Add or edit locations

Add new locations or edit existing ones. Each location is a physical place where inventory is stored.
3

For each location, set the name, the address, whether it fulfills online orders, and any local delivery settings.

​
Turn on locations in Supercycle

1

Go to logistics settings

Open Logistics and locations.
2

Turn on locations

Under Locations, turn on the toggle. Supercycle tracks a location on every item.
3

Set which locations ship rentals

Turn on Shipping for each location that ships rental orders. For a storage-only location, turn off Shipping. With Require location on, Supercycle won’t allocate rentals to items there.
4

Require a location (optional)

Turn on Require location to make customers select a location before adding items to their cart. Inventory and shipping methods are then limited to those available at the selected location.
With Require location on, items without a location can’t be rented. Supercycle shows a banner with how many items are affected.

​
Assign items to locations

To move several items at once, use Update location on Inventory. To find items without a location, filter Inventory by Location and select No location.
1

Select the items

Tick the items you’re moving.
2

Update the location

Select Actions > Update location, select the new location, then select Save.
With locations on, open the item and set Location to the new location, or to No location to remove it. Select Save in the save bar.

​
What the customer sees

When locations are on and required, customers select a location before adding items to their cart. The storefront then shows only the items available at that location, limits shipping methods to those available from it, and shows that location’s live availability. You can extend Supercycle with location-based features, such as a zip code locator that finds the nearest location, or delivery zones with different delivery options per location. See the Storefront API.
