Process flow for Warehouse Receipts

RPA (Robotic Process Automation) is leveraged to enhance the goods receipt process. Packing slips are scanned and the necessary information is updated in Infor LN, to register and confirm Warehouse Receipts.

The user must ensure that scanned packing slips (PDFs) are stored in a specified directory (for example, C:/Packing_Slips). The RPA process automatically creates these three folders in the specified directory:

• Processed: The successfully processed packing slips are moved to this folder.
• Error: The failed packing slips are moved to this folder.
• Logs: The log entries for tracking and reference are written in this folder.

This is the process flow for Warehouse Receipts:

1. The process is initiated by accessing the scanned packing slip PDFs stored in a specified directory (for example, C:/Packing_Slips).
2. The RPA process iterates through each packing slip, utilizing IDP and Gen AI to extract key attributes such as items, quantities, order number, vendor details, and ship-from business partner. This data is returned in JSON response format.
   Note: If packing slips are not found in the directory, the RPA process is terminated.
3. The Warehouse Receipt Lines are created automatically in Infor LN via IMS BODs, using the JSON response.
4. If inspection is applicable for the received goods, Warehouse Inspection and a Quality Management Inspection Order are generated, if required.
5. Labels are printed based on the pre-configured steps in Infor LN.
6. The Inbound Advice is generated based on the pre-configured steps in Infor LN.
7. Exceptions are sent to the email address of the primary contact linked to the Ship-From Business Partner.
   Note: The current solution supports only Purchase Order Origins for Warehouse Receipts linked to a Packing Slip.
