| # Inbound Inbound is the process of receiving the goods and storing in a warehouse. To receive and store goods in a warehouse, you can process the inbound order lines on which the goods are listed, or you can process the handling units used to pack the goods. Both inbound order lines and handling units are processed according to user-defined warehousing procedures. If you use handling units to process goods, the order lines related to the handling units are updated in the background. Run number Run number is a code assigned to a group of warehousing order lines when they are advised. LN assigns or generates a run number if a user does not manually enter or select a run number while he generates inbound or outbound advice for a group of warehousing order lines. For inbound movements, the user can generate storage lists and confirm storage lists by run. For outbound movements, the user can release outbound advice, generate picking lists, and confirm picking lists by run. Generate and put away inbound advice Inbound advice is a list generated by LN that indicates the location where received goods must be stored, taking into account storage conditions, blockings, and so on. Inbound advice consists of the instructions to move received items into a warehouse. An example of inbound advice line: Take 10 pieces of item A from location Receipt 3 and put them in location Bulk 5. 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. You can also manually generate an inbound advice. For non-location controlled warehouses, LN skips the inbound advice step. Inbound and outbound procedures User-defined warehousing procedures control the inbound, storage, and outbound goods flows in your warehouse. A warehousing procedure includes various activities that determine the way goods are processed in the warehouse. The warehousing inbound flow comprises the following default procedures: Receipt Inspection Storage list Storage list states the warehouse or locations where goods must be stored.
