# System Settings: System Tables - Inventory Management

The *System Tables* category on the **System Settings** screen allows you to configure various data points that can be selected using dropdown menus throughout your database. The *Inventory Management* tab specifically controls the values available in various dropdowns related to tracking inventory across different locations.

## Location Type

The Location Type is the category of different types of locations you store inventory, such as warehouse, office, truck, etc. Each specific location will be assigned a location type category.

| **Active** | *A checkmark indicates that the location type is active in your instance.* |
