This article refers to method B in the table.

When your location is set up to require put-away processing but not receive processing, use an Inventory Put-away document to record and post put-away and receipt information for your source documents. Inbound source documents can be purchase orders, sales return orders, and inbound transfer orders.

Note

Production and assembly output also represent inbound source documents. Learn more about handling production and assembly output for internal processes at Design Details: Internal Warehouse Flows.

You can create an inventory put-away in three ways:

Create the inventory put-away directly from the source document itself.
Create inventory put-aways for several source documents at the same time by using a batch job.
Create the put-away in two steps by first by releasing the source document to make the items available to be put away. You can create the inventory put-away based on the source document by using the Inventory Put-away page.

To create an inventory put-away from the source document

In the source document, which can be a purchase order, sales return order, or inbound transfer order, choose the Create Inventory Put-away/Pick action.
Select the Create Invt. Put-away checkbox.
Choose the OK button. A new inventory put-away is created.

To create multiple inventory put-aways with a batch job

Choose the icon, enter Create Inventory Put-away/Pick/Movement, and then choose the related link.
On the Warehouse Request FastTab, use the Source Document and Source No. fields to filter on certain types of documents or ranges of document numbers. For example, you can create put-aways for purchase orders only.
On the Options FastTab, select the Create Invt. Put-away checkbox.
Choose the OK button. The specified inventory put-aways are created.

To create the put-away in two steps

To request an inventory put-away by releasing the source document

When you release purchase orders, sales return orders, and inbound transfer orders, the items on the orders become available to be put away. The following steps describe how to make the items on a purchase order ready to be put away.

Choose the icon, enter Purchase Orders, and then choose the related link.
Select the purchase order that you want to release, and then choose the Release action.

To create an inventory put-away based on the source document

A warehouse employee can create a new inventory put-away based on the released source document.

Choose the icon, enter Inventory Put-away, and then select the related link.
Choose the New action.
In the Source Document field, select the type of source document you are putting away for.
In the Source No. field, select the source document.
Alternatively, choose the Get Source Document action to select the document from a list of inbound source documents that are ready for put-away at the location.
Choose the OK button to fill the put-away lines according to the selected source document.

To record the inventory put-away

On the Inventory Put-aways page, open a previously created put-away document.
In the Bin Code field on the put-away lines, the bins where the items must be put away are suggested based on the items' default bin. You can change the bin if needed.
Perform the put-away, and then enter the actual quantity that was put away in the Qty. to Handle field.

If you must place the items for one line in more than one bin, for example because the designated bin is full, use the Split Line action on the Lines FastTab. The action creates a line for the remaining quantity to handle.
After you put the items away, choose the Post action.
- Post the receipt of the source document lines that have been put away
- If the location uses bins, posting will also create warehouse entries to post the bin quantity changes.
Tip

To avoid mistakes, use the Preview Posting action to review the entries that posting will create. However, the preview won't show entries for inventory picks and put-aways that will post non-inventory lines from source documents. For example, lines that have the G/L Account type or items of the type Service.
