Warehouse Outbound Processing (3BS)
With this process, products are picked, packed, and sent from your warehouse. This scope item supports different outbound process scenarios. For example, you can send ordered products to external customers, return products to suppliers, and supply products to internal customers. The process starts with an outbound delivery that is relevant for processing in the warehouse. This document serves as the starting point for subsequent process steps. Warehouse tasks are created based on the outbound delivery. The physical process for picking is executed and confirmed afterwards. A warehouse worker packs the products into shipping handling units when packing is required. Serial numbers are captured in different steps depending on if the product is managed on documentation level (Documentation Serialization) or stock level (Serialization in Stock). Finally, the goods issue is posted.
