WM stock put away
Receiving is where warehousing, product handling, and accurate information begins. After products are received, each product must be placed in an appropriate location to ensure that downstream tasks are handled in the most efficient manner. You can use Warehouse Manager to determine where a product is to be put away based on your SA Administrator Options-Products-Warehouse Manager settings. This is the hierarchy for automatic bin allocation:
- If Fill Primary Bin First is Yes, primary bins are filled. If the option is No, and the bin is below or at minimum quantity, the bin is refilled to its maximum quantity.
- If the bin is already full, and Attempt Single Bin Put Away is Yes, bins are located by priority and filled to capacity. If a bin is a single location, the bin is assumed to have unlimited capacity. If the option is No, bins are located by Product Warehouse Product Setup priority and alternate bins are filled. Product Warehouse Product Setup priority can be set to FIFO or to use the Warehouse Manager Bin Setup priority.
- If Refill Open Assigned Bins First is Yes and Attempt Single Bin Put Away is Yes, the product is put away according to the Product Warehouse Product Setup priority and the bin is filled to capacity.
Note: Pre-receiving reports are available in
the Purchase and Transfer modules. For example, if you specify Yes for Directed Bin Put
Away in the Purchase Pre-Receiving
Report, directions on the report indicate where to store the products.
