Warehouse Inbound Processing (3BR)

In this process, products that are delivered with the intent to be stored in the warehouse are received and moved to a storage bin. This scope item allows different variants of inbound processing, such as inbound from supplier, inbound from another storage location, and inbound from another plant.

The process starts with an inbound delivery that is relevant for processing in the warehouse. Once the products arrive at the warehouse, batches and serial numbers can be assigned to the inbound delivery items and handling units can be created. Afterwards, the goods receipt is posted and warehouse tasks are created to execute the movements in the warehouse.

After moving the products to the final bin or the clarification zone (exceptional case), the warehouse tasks are confirmed accordingly.
