To store handling units

You can store a handling unit in the warehouse if the following conditions are met:

  • The handling unit obtained the Advised status after the handling unit's receipt was confirmed and an inbound advice was created for the handling unit. Note that handling units are put away automatically if the warehouse is non-location controlled. For further information, see Receipt and inspection procedures.
  • The handling unit obtained the Advised status after the handling unit was approved after inspection and an inbound advice was created for the handling unit.

To store a handling unit, proceed as follows:

  1. Access the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session.
  2. Select the handling unit that you want to store. You can store handling units that have the Advised status.
  3. On the appropriate menu, select the Execute Inbound sub-menu.
  4. From the Execute Inbound sub-menu, click Put Away. The handling unit is stored in the warehouse and obtains the In Stock status. The quantity of the items included in the stored handling unit is updated in the Quantity in Storage Unit field of the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session. Note that if the handling unit is due for inspection, the handling unit obtains the To Be Inspected status after you select the Put Away option. The To Be Inspected status indicates that the handling unit is ready for inspection.
