Welcome on the shopfloor to the incoming goods area!
At these gates incoming deliveries are controlled and booked by our warehouse staff.
The Handling Unit (HU) Each newly delivered handling unit is assigned a unique identification number called handling unit number (HU). From now on this number will be linked to the current location of the unit in the warehouse. This way we can always track the exact location of an item in our warehouse. |
Larry, warehouse clerk
Larry works in the incoming goods area. His job is to control the quantity and quality of incoming deliveries. He uses the Incoming Goods mobile app to register the shipments.
The delivery from the previous chapter has been shipped to our warehouse. In this chapter you will help Larry register the shipment to location “IG-01” (Incoming Goods 01)!
Launch the Incoming Goods Mobile App. To login, tap on the QR Code icon to start the camera and scan your personal QR Code, which you will find online in the customer center.
The shipment consists of two pallets, one holds 10 pieces of item 0010 and the other holds 50 pieces of item 0011. After controlling the pallets, Larry will book them to the location IG-01 (Incoming Goods 01) In order to do that, he will scan the locations´ barcode or enter it´s short code by hand.
Type „IG-01“ into the field RD-Location.
Confirm with „Enter“
A green checkmark appears to confirm that the location is active. Now Larry can open the ASN for the current shipment and register the delivered items to this location.
Tap on RECEIVE DELIVERY WITH ASN
A new screen opens. In the top row the scanned location short code is displayed.
Underneath a form for selecting and registering shipments is displayed.
Tap the magnifying glass in the first row to pick a shipment.
The screen “Receive Delivery” opens. All expected and released deliveries are listed, in our case only the shipment that was created in the previous chapter is displayed
The first field with a grey background contains general information about the entire shipment, specifically the name of the Consignor and the number of positions contained in it. Underneath all contained items of the shipment are listed individually.
Tap on the first field to select the shipment.
Tap on the magnifying glass next in the field “Item“. The “Receive Delivery” screen opens again displaying the items contained in the shipment.
Tap on the first row to select item 000010.
Control the quantity and the type of quantity. If needed set them to “10” and “PCE”.
Select PCE from the „Unit“ Dropdown.
Type „10“ into the Quantity field.
Now it´s time to enter the type of load support for the selected items.
Tap on “LSM” and choose “EURO” from the dropdown, which stands for EURO Pallet.
Then tap on BOOK to book this handling unit to the location IG-01.
After booking the handling unit the number in the quantity field changes to “0”, indicating that all expected pieces of this item have been delivered and booked. Larry can now go on to booking the other item!
Tap again on the magnifying glass to select the next item.
The „Receive Delivery“ screen opens. A colored dot is displayed before each position. A green dot indicates that the position has been booked successfully and a blue dot that the position it is still pending. Since the first position was booked just a moment ago, a green dot is displayed.
Tap on the second position to select it.
Repeat the process as before. Check the quantity (50), the type (PCE) and select “EURO” in the load support dropdown, then tap on BOOK.
The message “Receive delivery committed” is displayed to confirm that all handling units have been booked.
