The whole Halden Works structure built from empty, with the reasoning narrated at every fork. The sequence: the item master decision settled first and out loud; the organization count, with the warehouse question worked both ways before choosing; the item master organization created, then Bergen, Skien and the warehouse; parameters, with lot control enabled only on Bergen finished goods; manufacturing enabled on Bergen and Skien only; subinventories, including the non-nettable quarantine and the customer-owned tooling treatment; locators at Bergen and the Skien decision justified; inter-organization relationships, with the Skien-to-Bergen transfer type argued against the four-hour journey; then security contexts and the three test transactions. Name the defensible alternatives explicitly. The warehouse can reasonably be its own organization or a set of subinventories within Bergen — it depends on how you read "reported with Bergen but physically elsewhere", and both readings are fair. The Skien-to-Bergen transfer can defensibly be in-transit or…
