Inbound Transactions

This section includes these transactions:

Receipts

Use the Receipts transaction to receive items into a warehouse. You can assign lot numbers, inventory dates, serial numbers, certificate numbers, and handling units to items. You can also print barcode labels as soon as items are received.

Note: If the item is serial-in-inventory, each serial number is received on a separate line in Infor LN.

To streamline your inventory management processes, you can opt to put away inventory from within this transaction. Additionally, when items are needed urgently for an order, you can perform cross docking from within this transaction.

See Receiving Items.

Approvals

Use the Approvals transaction to approve, reject, or destroy inspected items.

To streamline your inventory management processes, you can opt to put away inventory from within this transaction. Additionally, when items are needed urgently for an order, you can perform cross docking from within this transaction. You can only put away or cross dock items that have been approved.

See Approving and Rejecting Inspected Items.

Putaway

Use the standalone Putaway transaction to put away items if you have not opted to combine put away with another transaction, such as Receipts. You can put away items using a receipt number, order number, or storage list.

The Putaway transaction provides built-in consolidation logic. Instead of putting an item away to a random or empty location, you can select from a list of locations where the item is already available, thereby consolidating items into a smaller pool of locations.

See Putting Away Items.

Receipt Label Print

Use this transaction form to print labels for a warehouse receipt. The labels include the inbounding data entered on the scanner.

See Printing Warehouse Receipt Labels

ASN Receipt

Use the ASN Receipts transaction to receive items using an advanced shipment notice (ASN). You can use the ASN number, packing list number, or packing slip number to receive items. You can choose to receive all items on the receipt or select individual lines to receive.

To streamline your inventory management processes, you can opt for immediate put away inventory which is only available when specific lines are being received.

See Receiving ASN Items.

Consignment Receipt

You can use the Consignment Receipt transaction to receive items that are not part of a purchase order into a consignment warehouse.

See Receiving Items Into Consignment Warehouses.

Customer Returns

Use the Customer Returns transaction to receive items that customers have returned without a Return Material Authorization (RMA).

See Receiving Customer Returns without an RMA.
