ANY Process Demo: Inventory Put-Away SP

Overall Process Flow

The Inventory Put-away SP process supports the goods receipt and put-away process in the warehouse based on an inventory put-away document generated beforehand in Microsoft Dynamics BC. After selection of an Inventory Put-away document, each available line to handle is presented in a sequential way. Next, if the item is tracked the Lot and/or serial number have to be entered. In case of the serial number, that is the last step for a line. Optionally, depending on the location setup, a bin has to be entered. Lastly the quantity to handle is entered. In case the quantity to handle is less than the expected quantity to put-away, the line is split, creating a new line with the quantity equal to the original outstanding quantity minus the quantity put-away. Finally, the put-away document is posted, which is reflected on the source document.
