| Shipment Notice (whinh3600m000) |  |
| Use this session to view and maintain details of a shipment notice including related data such as shipment notice lines, routings, and packaging. In this session, you can also perform the receipt of direct deliveries. ASNs are sent by ship-from business partners to register information about goods that are due to arrive. The ASN header contains information about the conveyance, shipper, supplier, and time of arrival. ASNs can be received by EDI or created manually. ASNs that you add manually obtain the Scheduled Manually status. An ASN provides details of shipments that are about to arrive. ASNs can make the receipt process much more efficient. Instead of having to scan an entire conveyance, warehouse personnel can receive a shipment against a previously received ASN. Therefore, the use of ASNs makes the receipt process faster and less prone to error. Related topics How to receive goods To receive direct delivery lines To receive project delivery lines

If you generate a handling unit and an external handling unit is provided by the supplier that is unique in ERP LN, this external handling unit code is used in ERP LN to process the goods.
