Report Arrival of Handling Unit
Explanation
This activity is used to receive handling units attached to an incoming dispatch advice.
This can be performed on the Incoming Dispatch Advice page and
the Handling Units In Incoming Dispatch Advice
page.
Only handling units with structure level 1 (top level) can be recieved. Multiple top-level handling unit lines
can be received connected to a single Incoming Dispatch Advice message ID.
Prerequisites
- A source order should exist to be received (e.g., a shipment order with
a delivered shipment or a purchase order with at least one order line must
have been created, released, and/or confirmed).
- To enable serial tracking, both Inventory Serial Tracking and
After Delivery Serial Tracking options must be enabled in Part. Additionally,
a serial rule, either automatic or
manual, must be specified.
- If reserved serial numbers are to be used, they must have been reserved on the
purchase order line.
- When using the charge/no charge function (Supplying the supplier with
material or components needed for manufacturing or packing the purchase parts), the components must have been fully delivered to the supplier.
- A dispatch advice must have been sent from the sender and must be in status
Created or
Changed.
System Effects
The handling unit is received at a picking, arrival or QA location.
The inventory parts are entered as arrived. The receipt line status
varies depending on the location:
- Receive into picking location: The receipt line acquires the Received status.
- Receive into arrival location: The receipt line acquires the To
be Received status.
- Receive into QA location: The receipt line acquires the To
be Inspected status.
For non-inventory registered purchase parts and no-number parts:
- Receive into Arrival: The receipt line acquires the Received status.
- Receive into Arrival, Inspect at Arrival: The receipt line acquires
the To be Inspected status.
When receiving a shipment order that is used to move purchased parts
between different arrival and QA locations i.e. a shipment order line having
demand code purchase receipt:
- The shipment order receipt will always go directly to the Received
status
- The parts on the shipment order receipt are added back to the
connected purchase receipt. If receive into arrival or QA location the
arrival process continues on the purchase receipt.
