WMS and warehousing inbound proceduresThe initial status of a warehousing order inbound line is Planned or Open ( For more information, refer to Planned status for Warehousing order lines). If the status is Planned and the order is meant for the WMS, the corresponding WMS status will be Expected. This means that the order is not yet activated to start processing. When the status becomes Open the order is ready to be processed. If the order is meant for the WMS, the WMS status changes to Sent. In turn, this status change will "publish" the order to the WMS. Alternatively, users can activate warehousing orders through the Activate Warehousing Orders (whinh2203m000) session. In this way, the order lines that belong to a warehousing order header can be sent at once to the WMS. In other words, the information to the WMS is sent by order. Create inbound order LN creates and activates an inbound-order line. If the warehouse of the inbound order line is WMS controlled, the WMS status of the inbound line is set to Expected. When the inbound order line is activated, the WMS status changes to Sent, except in the following cases:
An inbound order line with WMS status Sent is blocked for further processing, and awaiting messages from the WMS. The inbound order can still be modified. Print goods received note For the WMS this step in the procedure is only possible for non-physical items that cannot be handled by the WMS. Receipts If, in the WMS Interface Parameters (whwmd2105m000) session the Receipts Creation Allowed in Infor LN check box is cleared, LN users cannot create receipts for inbound lines related to a WMS-controlled warehouse. If, however, in the same session, the Non-physical Items check box is cleared, receipts for these items can be made in LN, when the related inbound lines are released to Warehousing. Generate inbound advice Not applicable because WMS-controlled warehouses cannot have locations. Put-away inbound advice Not applicable because WMS-controlled warehouses cannot have locations. Generate storage list Not applicable because WMS-controlled warehouses cannot have locations. Confirm storage list Not applicable because WMS-controlled warehouses cannot have locations.
