Using the Warehouse Inspections workbench

The Warehouse Inspections (whinh2631m100) session helps you to efficiently manage the operational processes for inspecting goods in a warehouse. The purpose of this workbench is to provide quick and easy access to inspection lines that are not yet processed.

Filters

You can use these filters to select inspection lines:

  • General

    The selected business partner or warehouse determine the inspection lines that are displayed in the graphs and on the Inspection Lines tab in this session. If no selection criteria are specified, all inspection lines present for the current company are displayed.

  • Workload

    Select one or more of these filters to view the corresponding number of inspection lines on the Inspection Lines tab.

    If you click Inbound or Outbound, the related number of inspection lines is displayed on the Inspection Lines tab and in the Workload graph.

    If you click a combination of Inbound or Outbound and Open and In Process, the related number of inspection lines is also displayed on the Inspection Lines tab and in the Workload graph.

    For example, Inbound and Open display the open inbound inspection lines on the Inspection Lines tab. The count field next to the Open filter displays the number of open inbound inspection lines. Also, the Workload graph displays the open inbound inspection lines categorized by Past Due, Due Today, Due 1 - 7 Days, and Due Beyond 7 Days.

    If you do not select either the Inbound or the Outbound option, no data is displayed in the graph.

  • Planned Inspection Date

    If you click one or more of these filters, the corresponding number of inspection lines is displayed on the Inspection Lines tab. These filters do not affect the number of inspection lines displayed in the Workload graph.

    The number of inspection lines displayed for these filter options are based on the options selected in the General and Workload group boxes.

  • Exceptions

    If you click Cross-dock Orders, only the inbound or outbound inspection lines based on cross-dock orders are displayed on the Inspection Lines tab.

    The Cross-dock Orders filter option is available if the Inbound or Outbound filter options are selected.

Graphs

  • The graph on the Workload tab displays the data based on the options selected in the General and Workload group boxes.

  • The graph on the Results tab displays the data based on the selected:

    • Options in the General group box and the Inbound and Outbound options in the Workload group box.
    • Status in the Show group box.
  • You can use the Graph Settings group box to customize the graph on the Results tab.
Note: 
  • The filters in the Planned Inspection Date group box only affect the number of inspection lines displayed on the Inspection Lines tab, not the graphs on the Workload and the Results tab.
  • To use the graph on the Results tab, you must specify an item in the Item field or select a line on the Inspection Lines tab.

Inspection Lines

The Inspection Lines tab refers to the Warehouse Inspections (whinh2131m100) session.

The inspection lines are sorted by urgency. The line with the oldest planned date is listed first. If the cross-dock filter is selected in the Exceptions group box, only the inspection lines based on cross-dock orders are displayed.

In the appropriate menu on the Inspection Lines tab, various options are available to process inspection lines.

When you open a line, the details of the line are displayed in the Inspection Lines (whinh2131m000) session.
