## Use Cases / Context

When stock operators are putting products into Output location, it is better to split those locations per group of deliveries. This can be extended to release channels management as deliveries, in that case, are grouped per channel.

To help that process, we need to restrict output locations choice to those with the same release channel as the ones that are waiting to be delivered.

## Configuration

- Go to Inventory > Configuration > Settings > Warehouse
- Activate Storage Locations
- Go to Inventory > Configuration > Warehouse Management > Locations
- Check the ‘Specific Release Channel Restriction’ box if you want to restrict movements to have the same release channel in pending output ones and the one that is trying to be moved in that location. That parameter will be applied to children locations.
- If you want to apply that restriction only on some specific locations, check the ‘Specific Release Channel Restriction’. It won’t be applied on children locations.
- If you want to take into account all pending incoming operations in that location too, check the ‘Release Channel Restriction For Incoming Moves’ box too (that appears only if ‘mixed’ restriction is not selected above).
