Warehouse freeze

A warehouse freeze pauses all work that moves stock across the entire installation, for when everything needs to stand still. This typically happens when switching to FLT (full stock count), since this requires that all work moving stock is completely halted. While a freeze is active, a red banner is shown at the top of every page, above the navigation bar.

What the banner shows​

The banner shows:

  • Freeze, followed by the title of the freeze.
  • A message explaining what has been paused: picking, goods receipt, transfers, replenishment routines, location changes, and new status counts — all of this remains paused until the freeze ends.
  • Who started the freeze, and when.

Counting and stock adjustment are not affected — they remain open while the warehouse is frozen, since they are what's used to complete the work the freeze was started for.

Lifting a freeze​

If you have permission to lift the freeze, the banner also shows a button labeled Lift freeze. Clicking it asks you to confirm, since lifting the freeze immediately reopens picking, goods receipt, and transfers for everyone — even if the work the freeze was started for isn't finished yet.
