Transfer Receipt of Inventory Entry overview

Transfer > Entry > Receipt of Inventory

Function acronym: WTEI

Use this function to receive warehouse transfers.

On this page, you can perform these actions:

  • Specify search criteria for the warehouse transfers you want to receive to see a list of matching warehouse transfers
  • Quick receive inventory for a warehouse transfer
  • Drill down to view header and line details and specify the quantity received for each line
  • Complete a full receipt for one or more selected transfers
  • Cancel receiving work for one or more selected transfers

You can receive an unlimited number of transfers and change those you have already received within the same journal. You can receive or maintain multiple times with the same transfer. You can only process transfers in Stage 3 (Shipped) or 4 (Pre-received). Receipt is not allowed for any other stage.

When you are finished with all transfers for this session, click Final Update to close the journal and update General Ledger and Inventory Control. You can also perform Back Order Fill.

Note: Superseded DNR items that are tied to a WT line do not move to the next WT suffix, which can result in the order not being filled. Check the Back Order Fill Exception Report to ensure that there are no outstanding transfers to handle.

When you receive a transfer, you must assign serial and lot number for all product on the transfer before you can receive it.

When you attempt to receive warehouse transfers, your SA Operator Setup record is checked. If the Allow Override Of Home Warehouse field in SA Operator Setup is cleared and the default warehouse is not the Ship To Warehouse, this message is displayed: 
Warehouse Must be Same as Operator Warehouse (5607)
