Labelling storage locations: rack, row, bin

Give a bin a code just like an item and receiving and picking get noticeably faster.

Keep the code structure simple: zone, rack, row, level, for example A-03-2-4. Print it on each bin label as a linear barcode and in large text.

Before putting stock away the worker scans the bin code, then the item code, and the system records the location itself.
