Limitations of auto receiving

Auto-receipt of ASNs in TWL has these limitations:

  • Cross docking or dock-to-stock receiving is not supported in TWL for vendors that are set up for auto receiving.
  • Pallet IDs are auto-generated when the ASN is released to TWL and are the same for all receipts. You cannot specify a pallet ID. The pallet ID is the RT ID from the ASN RT transaction. If an item also has an existing pallet in the system, a temporary pallet ID is assigned. The temporary pallet ID consists of the RT ID number with a sequential number added to the beginning. During put away, you can assign these temporary pallets to an actual pallet ID.
  • Labels cannot be printed during receiving. You must transfer from the auto-generated pallet to an actual pallet and then print the labels during put away of the ASN products.
  • Zones are not assigned, but are loaded with a blank value. You must assign a specific zone during put away.
