RECEIVING

An administrative function that involves checking on the quality, quantity, and condition of the incoming goods followed by their proper storage. Receiving is a deceptively simple process in many warehouses. The conventional wisdom says that order picking and shipping are the most labor-intensive activities in warehouse operations, and therefore they deserve and get far more attention than receiving. Yet a faulty receiving process can create as much trouble in a warehouse as poor order picking or shipping operations.

Receiving Highlights

  • Receiving can be performed against a single purchase order, multiple purchase orders, and when no purchase order exists
  • Receiving can be recorded via standard keyboard entry and handheld RF-enabled barcode scanners
  • Supplier advance shipping notifications can pre-fill anticipated receiving quantities as an additional checkpoint for data integrity purposes
  • Supports automatic placement of received goods on QC hold on a product-by-product basis
  • Damage identification can be recorded upon receipt
  • Supports immediate allocation of inventory to sales order line items through receipts from vendors and intercompany transfers
