You must generate an inbound advice for handling units after the receipt of the handling units is confirmed and, if inspections are part of the inbound flow for a particular warehouse, again after the handling unit is approved. After approval, an inbound advice for the inspected and approved handling units is required.</Paragraph>

	<GeneralSection><ProcedureList><ListIntro>To generate an <Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000323" role="glossary">inbound advice</Link> for a handling unit, proceed as follows:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>Start the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000" role="session">Handling Units (whwmd5130m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>Select the handling unit for which you want to generate an inbound advice. You can generate inbound advice for handling units that have the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#received" role="enum">Received</GUIRef> status or the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#approved" role="enum">Approved</GUIRef> status. A handling unit obtains the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#received" role="enum">Received</GUIRef> status after its receipt is confirmed in the warehouse. For some warehouses, an inspection procedure is included in the inbound flow. After inspection and approval of a handling unit, the handling unit obtains the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#approved" role="enum">Approved</GUIRef> status, and another inbound advice must be created for the approved handling units. For further information, see <Link href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust" role="domain">Handling Unit Status</Link>.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>On the <GUIRef href="" role="menu">Specific</GUIRef> menu, select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#" role="formcommand">Execute Inbound</GUIRef> sub-menu.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>From the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#" role="formcommand">Execute Inbound</GUIRef> sub-menu, click <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#inbound.advise.hu" role="formcommand">Generate Advice</GUIRef>. As a result, an inbound advice is created for the handling unit. The inbound advice lists the storage locations for the handling unit. If the goods included in the handling unit require inspection, the inbound advice lists the inspection locations for the handling units. For further information on how to specify whether items require inspection, see <Link href="/baanerp/wh/onlinemanual/000016" role="manual">Approvals and inspections</Link>. After the inbound advice is created for the handling unit, the status of the handling unit and any related child handling units is set to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#advised" role="enum">Advised</GUIRef>.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>If the creation of storage lists is defined in the applicable warehousing procedure, select <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#inbound.gen.stor.list.hu" role="formcommand">Generate Storage List</GUIRef> from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#" role="formcommand">Execute Inbound</GUIRef> sub-menu to open the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3415m000" role="session">Generate Storage List (whinh3415m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3415m000" role="session">Generate Storage List (whinh3415m000)</GUIRef> session, specify the required settings for the storage list and click <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Generate</GUIRef> to create the storage list. After the storage list is created, you return to the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000" role="session">Handling Units (whwmd5130m000)</GUIRef> session. The status of the handling unit remains <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/hust#advised" role="enum">Advised</GUIRef>.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>If required, you can undo the inbound advice. This might be required if, for example, the goods fall from the fork lift and are heavily damaged on their way to the storage location. To undo an inbound advice, select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#inbound.undo.advise.hu" role="formcommand">Undo Advice</GUIRef> option from the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#" role="formcommand">Execute Inbound</GUIRef> sub-menu of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000" role="session">Handling Units (whwmd5130m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>You can view the inbound advice in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m000" role="session">Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000)</GUIRef> session. You can access this session if you select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#view.inbound.advice" role="formcommand">Inbound Advice</GUIRef> option on the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000#inbound.open.hu" role="formcommand">Open</GUIRef> sub-menu of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd5130m000" role="session">Handling Units (whwmd5130m000)</GUIRef> session. You can also access the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m000" role="session">Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000)</GUIRef> session from the Web Browser or the Menu Browser.</ListItem>
