Appointments overview

You can use the appointment module to view and create Door/Dock appointments and trailer records for carriers that service Receipts, Shipment Orders, and Loads in Infor WMS Warehouse Management.

You can use this module to:

• Display the count of appointments by date. You can access an appointment for a specific date or door, or you can search for a specific document.
• Create or update an appointment either individually or create recurring appointments. You can link appointments to ASNs, shipment orders, and load.
• Create or update a trailer record and link the trailer directly to an appointment by updating the appointment.

• When you update an appointment, updates are also made to associated ASNs, shipment orders, and linked trailer records.

• A trailer record can also be linked directly to ASNs and shipment orders. When you associate a trailer with an ASN or shipment order, the Trailer field on the ASN or shipment order screen is updated with the trailer number.
• View a history of status changes by searching for a specific trailer. If a trailer is associated with an ASN/ receipt, the status history is updated during RF receipt processing and by certain updates to ASN/Receipt screens .
