	<AimSection><Paragraph>Inbound advice are instructions to move received items into a warehouse. Therefore, an individual inbound advice line might read as follows: Take 10 pieces of item A from location Receipt 3 and put them in location Bulk 5.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>Inbound advice is normally generated according to the warehousing procedure defined for the warehousing order lines related to the receipt lines, inspection lines, or handling units for which inbound advice must be created, but you can also manually create inbound advice in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m000" role="session">Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
	</AimSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Generate inbound advice</SectionTitle>
		<Paragraph>When inbound advice is generated or entered, no inventory transactions have yet taken place. If the items are physically taken from one location and put away in the new location, SSA ERP updates inventory. The inventory is updated by means of the Put away command, which is discussed later in this topic.</Paragraph>
		<List><ListIntro>You can generate inbound advice in one of the following ways:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>If <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3201m000" role="session">Generate Inbound Advice (whinh3201m000)</GUIRef> is not a step in the receipt procedure, inbound advice is generated as soon as you confirm a receipt. If <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3201m000" role="session">Generate Inbound Advice (whinh3201m000)</GUIRef> is not a step in the inspection procedure, inbound advice is generated as soon as an inspection line is approved.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>To generate inbound advice for any confirmed receipt, select the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Generate Advice</GUIRef> option from the <GUIRef href="" role="menu">Specific</GUIRef> menu in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3512m000" role="session">Warehouse Receipts (whinh3512m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>You can generate inbound advice for a range of orders in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3201m000" role="session">Generate Inbound Advice (whinh3201m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<List><ListIntro>When you create an inbound advice line, the following changes take place:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>The allocated inventory level of the source location increases.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The on-order quantity of the destination location increases.</ListItem>
		</List>
	</GeneralSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Run numbers</SectionTitle>
		<Paragraph>Runs are a useful way to group inbound advice lines. Instead of putting away or removing individual advice lines, you can specify a run number and process the advice lines that you allocate to that run number.</Paragraph>
	</GeneralSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Detailed report</SectionTitle>
		<List><ListIntro>Generating inbound advice is a process that draws heavily on the system's capacity. Therefore, SSA ERP enables you to choose between the following types of reports:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>The standard report, which keeps network traffic low and transaction speeds high.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The detailed report, which is a slower, more detailed query with greater feedback as to the chosen location.</ListItem>
		</List>
	</GeneralSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Maintain inbound advice</SectionTitle>
		<Paragraph>You can change the destination location and/or the quantity on any inbound advice line. You can also insert new advice lines, if required.</Paragraph>
	</GeneralSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Put away inbound advice</SectionTitle>
		<List><ListIntro>The following methods are available to put away inbound advice:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>You can use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m000#actualize.advice.line" role="formcommand">Put Away</GUIRef> command in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m000" role="session">Inbound Advice (whinh3525m000)</GUIRef> session to put away an individual advice line.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>In the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3203m000" role="session">Put Away Inbound Advice (whinh3203m000)</GUIRef> session, you can put away a range of advice lines.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>If the advice line is associated with a <Link href="/baanerp/wh/glossary/glossary#000384" role="glossary">storage list</Link>, confirming that storage list puts away the advice line. You can view and put away the storage list in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m100" role="session">Storage List (whinh3525m100)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
		</List>
		<List><ListIntro>If an inbound advice line is put away, SSA ERP reflects the physical movement of items, which results in the following changes:</ListIntro>
			<ListItem>The inventory on hand at the source location is decreased and the available capacity of the source location is increased.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The inventory on hand at the destination location is increased and the available capacity is decreased.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The allocated inventory at the source location is decreased.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>The inventory on-order at the destination location is decreased.</ListItem>
		</List>
	</GeneralSection>
	<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>Storage lists</SectionTitle>
		<Paragraph>The destination locations listed on inbound advice can be anywhere in the warehouse, which might result in an inefficient put away sequence. The storage list is used to make this sequence more efficient by, for example, including all items that must go to a specific location on one list. By confirming a storage list, you put away each advice line associated with the storage list. You can put away storage lists the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3525m100" role="session">Storage List (whinh3525m100)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
