Close or deactivate a warehouse

When you stop using a site, you deactivate the warehouse rather than delete it — its history stays available for reporting.

Before you can close it

A warehouse must be empty of stock first. While it still holds inventory, Klovio won’t let you deactivate it. To empty it:

• Transfer the stock to another warehouse — see Transfer stock between locations, or
• Sell it down to zero, or
• Adjust out any remainder with a clear reason.

Deactivate the warehouse

1. Go to Warehouse → Warehouses → All warehouses and open it.
2. Confirm on-hand stock is zero.
3. Click Deactivate.

The warehouse drops out of everyday lists, dropdowns and the dashboard roll-up.

What’s kept

All of its past receipts, shipments and movements remain in reporting. A closed warehouse still appears in historical reports — you just can’t receive or pick there anymore.

Reopening

If you bring the site back, reactivate the warehouse. Its locations come back with it.

Tip: run a final on-hand CSV export just before closing a site. It’s a clean record of exactly what the warehouse held on its last day.
