Using a vendor warehouse in SalesWarp enables you to use a vendor facility in the same way you would use an internal warehouse in SalesWarp. This gives you the ability to ship orders directly from a vendor warehouse, view vendor inventory feeds inside of SalesWarp, and include stock quantities of the vendor warehouse in your total quantity on hand, with the distinct advantage of not having to physically stock and store the extra inventory.
Prerequisites:
Vendor warehouses are only available at the advanced subscription level of SalesWarp. Those subscribing to the essentials version of SalesWarp will NOT have access to this feature. In order to utilize a vendor warehouse in SalesWarp, you will need to add the vendor that you wish to use into SalesWarp before creating the vendor warehouse.
Creating a vendor warehouse:
Once the above prerequisites have been met, navigate to Warehouses -> Warehouses.

Be sure to click save!
Once you are finished, go to Warehouses -> Warehouses and make sure and click on the eye 
icon in the row of your newly created vendor warehouse.
To view the inventory of the vendor warehouse, click on the "Inventory" tab. This will bring up a list of the inventory available from the vendor ware house and most up to date stock quantities in the warehouse.

The last thing you may want to do is set up your shipping connections for the vendor. By default, the shipping connection for the vendor warehouse will be set to manual. If you wish to use a different connection, click on the "Ship Orders" tab. You can either keep the ship connection manual, or use another software tool as the shipping connection (such as FTP, Mysql, or an API).
