# Exclude a stockroom from service locations

Exclude a stockroom from service locations so that the stockroom isn't shown in the Stockrooms missing service locations important actions card in the Inventory view.

## Before you begin

Role required: inventory\_admin

## About this task

**Note:** You can't exclude a stockroom that already has associated service locations. You must first remove the associated service locations and then exclude the stockroom from service locations. For more details, see [Remove service locations](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/it-asset-management/hardware-asset-management/remove-service-locations.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Hardware Asset Workspace** > **Inventory**.

2.  Select the **All stockrooms** tab.

3.  From the list of available stockrooms, select the stockroom that you want to exclude from service locations.

4.  Select the **Exclude from service locations** check box.

5.  Select **Save**.


## Result

-   The stockroom isn't shown in the Stockrooms missing service locations important actions card even if the stockroom doesn't support service locations.
-   The **Service location** tab doesn't show the **Add** option for adding service locations to the stockroom.
