How to receive goodsThis topic describes how to create receipts and link various types of records to the receipts. After creating receipts, you must confirm the receipts before you can store the goods in the warehouse. How to confirm receipts is described in Confirming receipts and receipt lines. For a general overview of receipt procedures, see Overview of receipt and inbound inspection procedures. You can perform the receipt of goods in the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session. In this session, you can receive goods listed on the following types of records:
Expected orders are inbound warehousing orders that are expected to be received in (one of) your warehouses. Expected orders are displayed in the Expected Orders (whinh3822m000) session. Expected order lines are inbound warehousing order lines that are expected to be received in (one of) your warehouses. Expected order lines are displayed in the Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000) session. In this session, you can also record unexpected goods, that is, goods for which no expected order (line) exists yet. Note
How to create a receipt To create a new receipt record, proceed as follows:
Note Alternatively, you can use the Warehouse Receipts (whinh2610m100) workbench session to select and handle inbound order lines that are past due, due today, or due in the future. How to link order lines, ASNs, loads, shipments, or handling
units to a receipt After you create a receipt, you must link inbound order lines, advance shipment notices, shipments, loads, or handling units to the receipt. As a result, LN creates receipt lines for the linked inbound order lines and the inbound order lines on which the linked handling units, shipments, loads, or ASN lines are based. The following options are available to link these types of records to a receipt:
Note You can use the Unlink All Order Lines and Undo Link Order Lines to Receipt on the appropriate menu of the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session to unlink inbound order lines from a receipt. To receive unexpected goods When an item arrives for which no expected order (line) is present, you can use the Add Unexpected Receipt Line command to create a temporary receipt line in which you can enter receipt details. To confirm and process the unexpected receipt line, an order line must be available for the unexpected receipt line. The order line must be released to warehousing. If the order line is released to warehousing, you can link the resulting warehousing order line to the unexpected receipt by means of the Link Order to Unexpected Receipt Line command in the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session. Automatic receipts LN automatically carries out receipts and update the normal (non-administrative)warehouse with the inventory received in the "real" VMI warehouse. Automatic receipts are used to limit the receipt administration but not to update the administrative warehouses. Automatic receipts are based on purchase orders, contractual inventory levels, or demand forecast. While the automatic receipts are booked into the administrative warehouse, the goods listed on them are actually received in the "real" VMI warehouse managed by the supplier. For automatic receipts into the customer's administrative warehouse, you can generate automatic receipt records in the Initiate Automatic Receipts (whinh3223m000) session. Duplicate receipts check If the Check on Duplicate Receipts is selected in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session, during receipt entry the application checks whether the receipt is already present. If a duplicate is found, the creation of the receipt line is blocked and a message is displayed showing a blocking reason and indicating the receipt line of which the blocked receipt line is a duplicate. After receipt After you have performed the receipt of goods, the receipt must be confirmed. After confirming the goods, the next step of the applicable warehousing procedure can be carried out.
