      <Paragraph>The initial status of a warehousing order inbound line is <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.lsta#planned" role="option">Planned</GUIRef> or <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.lsta#open" role="option">Open</GUIRef> ( For more information, refer to <Link href="/baanerp/wh/onlinemanual/000442" role="manual">Planned status for Warehousing order lines</Link>). If the
		status is <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.lsta#planned" role="option">Planned</GUIRef> and the order is meant for the WMS, the
		corresponding WMS status will be <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/wmss#expected" role="option">Expected</GUIRef>.
		This means that the order is not yet activated to start processing. When the
		status becomes <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/domains/inh.lsta#open" role="option">Open</GUIRef> the order is ready to be processed. If the order is
		meant for the WMS, the WMS status changes to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/wmss#sent" role="option">Sent</GUIRef>. In
		turn, this status change will "publish" the order to the WMS.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>Alternatively, users can activate warehousing orders through the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh2203m000" role="session">Activate Warehousing Orders (whinh2203m000)</GUIRef> session. In this way, the order
		lines that belong to a warehousing order header can be sent at once to the WMS.
		In other words, the information to the WMS is sent by order.</Paragraph>

         <ListIntro>The inbound inspection procedure for a WMS-controlled

         <ListItem>In LN,
		  an inbound order or ASN can be created or modified. These orders are sent to
		  the WMS, and an ASN receipt is created for it in the WMS.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>After receiving the ASN in the WMS, the order can be inspected.
		  The WMS inspects the ASN receipt and updates the ASN receipt status. The WMS
		  then sends the inspection results to LN. Here, the inbound inspection and hold
		  information is updated.</ListItem>
         <ListItem>Upon registration of the ASN receipt, which can result in an <Emphasis>ad hoc</Emphasis> inspection, the WMS may change the value of the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">QC Required</GUIRef> field. In a separate receipt message, the value of
		  this field is returned to LN in order to update the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3512m000#line.inspection" role="manual">Inspection</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/inh/whinh3512m000" role="session">Warehouse Receipts (whinh3512m000)</GUIRef> session. <List>
