Inward Staging Area & Location Configuration for Inward Staging
This area serves as an organized holding space for incoming boxes. It is a designated space within a warehouse where inward boxes after receiving are temporarily stored for the GRN process or Sample QC(sample QC is required for Box-wise Inwards or Box-wise Crossdock).
Inward Staging Putaway & Pallet wise Putaway
The Inward Staging putaway/pallet-wise putaway process will be used for the temporary storage of boxes for boxwise inwards and crossdock to later do sample QC and gate entry approval.
Additionally, inward staging putaway would help in the piece-wise GRN flow. The use case: When the GRN start date of the items received in the gate entry is some days after the receiving date of the material.
