A location in Rundoo is one of your physical stores — with its own address, phone, sales-tax rate, cash drawer, and inventory. Every transaction happens at a location, so Rundoo always knows which register it was rung on, which inventory moved, and which tax rate applied.
In the Admin mode, open Locations in the left sidebar — that's where all of your stores live, plus the tax rules that govern them.
The Locations page holds three stacked sections, top to bottom:
ID, Name, Address, Phone, Tax Rate, and whether the location is Active. The Status: Active filter above the table hides deactivated stores by default; flip it to All or Inactive to see the rest.Enable prompt to use address tax rate during sale. When on, if a customer's delivery address has a different tax rate than the location, the cashier gets prompted to use the destination's rate.The Add location button sits at the top-right of the Locations table.
Click Add location to open the form. The required field is Name — that's the in-product label for the store that shows up in filters, headers, and the location switcher at sign-in. Everything else is optional at save time but strongly recommended: missing address means no auto-calculated tax, missing phone means receipts won't carry one.
| Field | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Name | The store's name inside Rundoo. Required. |
| Display name | What prints on receipts, invoices, and statements, if you want that to differ from the internal name (e.g. internal Menlo Park, customer-facing Rundoo Paints). |
| Location ID | A short code (often 1–3 letters) that prefixes every invoice, receipt, transfer, and PO generated at this location — e.g. B-00214 tells you at a glance it came from the Menlo Park store. |
| Address | Street address. Typing here opens a Google-style autocomplete dropdown; pick the match to fill City, State, ZIP, and Country in one shot. |
| Apt, suite, etc. | Unit / suite number, if any. |
| Phone | The store's public phone. Shows on receipts and in the locations list. |
| Inbound email | The email address customers can reach this store at. CC on all email communications below it carbon-copies every email Rundoo sends on this store's behalf (sale receipts, statement reminders) to this address. |
| Cash float | The starting cash in this location's register at the top of each day. Drives the close-out reconciliation math in Cash drawer. |
| Sales tax | Auto-generated from the address after you save. You don't type a rate here — Rundoo fetches the correct one from the address. |
| GL accounts | Rundoo auto-picks the highest-numbered GL account of each type for this location. Adjust the mapping in Chart of Accounts if you need something specific. |
Save commits the location. You're dropped back on the Locations list with the new row at the bottom.
<aside> ⚠️
The Address field is a Google-powered autocomplete — start typing and it offers matching addresses. Pick one to populate City / State / ZIP / Country in a single click. Typing a full address without picking a suggestion is allowed but means the fields below stay empty, and the auto-calculated Sales tax won't resolve.

Click any row on the Locations list to open that store's detail page. You land on the General top tab, which mirrors the Add-location form — every field above is editable here. The Integrations top tab holds per-location third-party settings (like a QuickBooks mapping or a Benjamin Moore store code) for Rundoo tenants that have them configured.
