Connect Default Location to Site

Explanation

Use this activity to connect default receipt locations against a site. It facilitates the receipt of goods, but it is optional to use this feature. Default locations for a site is useful when an inventory part has no default locations specified. A default location can be amended at receipt.

The following location types can be connected as default locations to a site: Arrival and Quality Assurance.

When you perform an action, such as an arrival registration or a movement, the system suggests an adequate location dependent on the performed step in the receive case flow. However, if a default location with the location type arrival or quality assurance is connected to the inventory part as well, the system suggests this location instead.

Note: The default receipt locations specified in the inventory part record will take precedence over the default locations entered here.
