> Review storage occupancy, configure capacity needed for utilisation and export the matching location results.

Use Slotting & Utilization to identify empty, crowded or mixed-SKU storage locations. Occupancy can be reviewed without capacity settings; utilisation percentages need a configured maximum capacity.

## Before you begin

You need analytics-view access for the report and analytics-export access for downloads. Choose the correct account, client and reporting period before comparing or sharing results.

## Slotting and location utilization

Use **Reporting > Slotting & Utilization** to review how storage locations are being used.

The report shows empty and occupied locations, stored units, mixed-SKU locations, products spread across multiple pick faces, and locations that exceed their configured maximum capacity. Selecting a client limits the report to locations containing that client's stock. Occupancy and utilization still use all stock you are permitted to see at each shared location, while the listed SKUs follow the selected client.

Occupancy and mixed-SKU results work without capacity settings. To calculate utilization percentages and identify over-capacity locations, configure a **Maximum Capacity** on the relevant storage locations.

Choose **Location type** and select **Refresh** to apply your filters. **Empty only** requires **All Clients** and warehouse-wide client access. With analytics-export access, select **Export CSV** to download every matching location across all pages. The **Contents** column lists up to five SKUs per location; it is not a full inventory breakdown.

## Verify and follow up

Open a representative location and compare its stock and Maximum Capacity with the report. If utilisation is missing, configure capacity before refreshing. Review shared-location quantities and client scope before moving stock or changing layout.
