Abstract: In a component warehousing support apparatus, the stock quantity which is the number of target components to be warehoused, which are actually stored in each of component storages, is acquired for each of the plurality of component storages. Then, the warehousing destination candidate information indicating a candidate of the warehousing destination of the target component among the plurality of component storages is calculated on the basis of the stock quantity of the target component in each of the plurality of the component storages. Therefore, a candidate of the warehousing destination in accordance with the stock quantity of the target component in each component storage can be confirmed with reference to the warehousing destination candidate information. As a result, it becomes possible to easily determine an appropriate component storage as the warehousing destination of the component from among the plurality of component storages.
