Order Allocation

[james]

I have a scenario where I have 2 warehouses.  I always want to ship
products from the nearest warehouse to the client.  How does ofbiz
handle order allocation of product on sales orders to a specific
warehouse.  Can we set up customers to get products from a specific
warehouse?

Thanks,

James
