  3. Click Add Bin.
  4. Bin—Enter a unique code identifying the bin.
  5. Description—Enter a description of the bin.

    Note: You can only select Out of Service if there is no quantity of a part/parts on hand in the bin.
  7. Click Submit.
    Note: To delete a bin, select the bin to delete, and then click Delete Bin. You can only delete a bin if there are no existing part records associated with the bin.
