About

🏭 Warehouse Theatre 3D

Free 3D & 2D warehouse storage visualization for ERPNext — works with the warehouse hierarchy you already have

ERPNext v15 · Vue 3.x CDN · Three.js r128 · License MIT · Price Free


What it does

Most ERPNext warehouse setups are just a flat list of names in the Warehouse tree. Warehouse Theatre 3D turns that tree into a navigable 3D and 2D warehouse you can walk through, search, and inspect — stock levels, fill percentage, and item detail, all live from your existing Bin data.

No relabeling required. A one-time setup wizard reads the warehouse hierarchy you already have and asks you to assign a role (Building, Floor, Slot, Bin) to each level it finds — it never renames or moves anything.

🏗️ How the hierarchy works

The app uses a generic 4-role model — Building → Floor → Slot → Bin — but it adapts to your existing tree depth instead of requiring a specific naming convention:

Whatever you already have → Role you assign in the wizard
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Depth 1 (e.g. "Main Campus") → Building (optional)
Depth 2 (e.g. "Ground Floor") → Floor
Depth 3 (e.g. "A1", "A2", "B1") → Slot (renders as a rack)
Depth 4 (e.g. "L1", "L2", "L3") → Bin (renders as a shelf level)

If your tree is only 3 levels deep, skip Building. If a level doesn't map cleanly, mark it "Skip" — the wizard handles uneven trees by letting you review every depth before committing.

Stock is tracked at the Bin level, same as standard ERPNext. The app reads tabBin directly — no data migration.


📦 Installation

Available on the Frappe Cloud Marketplace — install directly from your site's Marketplace Apps page, no manual setup required.

Then open the app from the /apps screen, or go directly to /warehouse-theatre-3d.


🚀 First-time setup

  1. Open the app — if no warehouse has been mapped yet, the setup wizard launches automatically

  2. Step 1 — Scan: the app reads your existing Warehouse tree and groups warehouses by depth

  3. Step 2 — Map levels: assign Building / Floor / Slot / Bin (or Skip) to each depth shown

  4. Step 3 — Done: review the counts, then jump straight into the 3D view

No SQL, no manual custom field setup, no need to rename any warehouse.

🐛 Troubleshooting

Problem

Fix

Setup wizard shows no warehouses

Create at least one Warehouse in Stock settings first

Slots overlapping in 3D

Use Edit floor plan to set row/column positions if the wizard's defaults need adjusting

Bins not appearing as levels

Confirm the Bin-role depth in setup actually contains the warehouses meant to be shelf levels

App not on /apps screen

Confirm your role is System Manager, Stock Manager, or Stock User
