{$blocking->implode(', ')} have default source or destinatio

Error message

{$blocking->implode(', ')} have default source or destination locations within warehouse {$warehouse->name}, therefore you cannot archive it.

What it means

Also on Warehouse's `deleted` event: after checking ongoing moves, it looks for OperationType records outside this warehouse whose default source_location_id or destination_location_id points inside the warehouse's location subtree. Those external references block archiving because the referenced locations are about to be removed.

Solutions

1. Repoint each blocking operation type's default source/destination location to a location outside the deleted warehouse
2. Delete operation types that are unused instead of repointing them
3. Retry the warehouse deletion once no external references remain

Example fix

// before
$warehouse->delete(); // throws: ids 5, 12 have default locations inside WH

// after
OperationType::whereIn('id', $blockingIds)->get()->each(function ($ot) use ($replacementLocation) {
    $ot->update(['source_location_id' => $ot->source_location_id === null ? $ot->source_location_id : $replacementLocation->id]);
});
$warehouse->delete();

$childIds = Location::query()
    ->whereRaw('parent_path LIKE ?', [$warehouse->viewLocation->parent_path.'%'])
    ->pluck('id');
$blocking = OperationType::where(fn ($q) => $q->whereIn('source_location_id', $childIds)->orWhereIn('destination_location_id', $childIds))
    ->whereNotIn('id', $warehouse->operationTypes->pluck('id'))
    ->count();
if ($blocking > 0) {
    abort(422, "Repoint {$blocking} operation type(s) that default into this warehouse's locations.");
}

try {
    $warehouse->delete();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    // message names blocking operation type ids: repoint their default locations, then retry
    return back()->withErrors(['warehouse' => $e->getMessage()]);
}

When it happens

Trigger: Deleting/archiving a warehouse while other operation types (belonging to other warehouses or global) use one of its locations (e.g. WH/Stock or children) as default source or destination. The message lists the blocking operation type ids.

Common situations: Cross-warehouse or transit operation types pointing at another warehouse's stock; operation types copied from templates that kept the old warehouse's locations; cleanup scripts deleting warehouses in the wrong order.
