| To advise inbound handling unitsInbound advice are used for warehouses
with locations. You must generate an inbound advice for handling units after
the receipt of the handling units is confirmed and, if inspections are part of
the inbound flow for a particular warehouse, again after the handling unit is
approved. After approval, an inbound advice for the inspected and approved
handling units is required. To generate an inbound advice for a handling unit, proceed as
follows: - Start the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session.
Select the handling unit for which you want to generate an
inbound advice. You can generate inbound advice for handling units that have
the Received status or the Approved status. A handling unit obtains the Received status after its receipt is confirmed in the warehouse. For some warehouses, an
inspection procedure is included in the inbound flow. After inspection and approval of a handling unit, the
handling unit obtains the Approved status, and another inbound advice must be created for the approved handling
units. For further information, see Handling Unit Status. - On the appropriate menu, select the Execute Inbound sub-menu.
From the Execute Inbound sub-menu, click Generate Advice. As a result, an inbound advice is
created for the handling unit. The inbound advice lists the storage locations for the
handling unit. If the goods included in the handling unit require inspection,
the inbound advice lists the inspection locations for the handling units. For
further information on how to specify whether items require inspection, see Warehousing inspections. After the inbound advice is created for the handling unit,
the status of the handling unit and any related child handling units is set to Advised. - If the creation of storage lists is defined in the applicable
warehousing procedure, select Generate Storage List from the Execute Inbound sub-menu to open the Generate Storage List (whinh3415m000) session.
- In the Generate Storage List (whinh3415m000) session, specify the required settings for the
storage list and click Generate to create the storage list. After the storage
list is created, you return to the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session. The status of the handling unit remains Advised.
- If required, you can undo the inbound advice. This might be
required if, for example, the goods fall from the fork lift and are heavily
damaged on their way to the storage location. To undo an inbound advice, select
the Undo Advice option from the Execute Inbound sub-menu of the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session.
- You can view the inbound advice in the Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000) session. You can access this session if you select the Inbound Advice option on the Open sub-menu of the Handling Units (whwmd5130m000) session. You can also access the Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000) session from the Web Browser or the Menu Browser.
