Cross dock items during receiving
Cross docked receipts are used to fill orders. You are not required to put the items away before they are picked. This quantity is the backorder quantity in Product Warehouse Product Setup and the quantity from undropped backorders that have been printed and released to Order Drop Manager. These quantities are added by TWL to produce the total cross dock amount when receiving is performed at the line item level.
If parameter 6263, Cross Dock - Include Demand Qty, is set to Yes, then the amount to route to a cross dock zone is calculated by TWL RF Receiving. This amount includes the Product Warehouse Product Setup Demand quantity for any WT, KP, or VA backorders.
When items being received have a backordered quantity on the Product Warehouse Product Setup record, a message is displayed asking whether to cross dock the quantity.
If the quantity to be received is greater than the backorder quantity, another message is displayed. This message asks whether to receive the quantity to a cross dock pallet.
The additional received quantities are directed to a pallet designated for a specific bin location, based on the standard put away logic.
After completing the receiving process and updating the system, you can see which items were allocated to orders by viewing the Sales Entry Processing Back Order Fill Report.
