The Stone Edge version of the Receive program allows you to receive items directly into your order management system.
When a shipment arrives, you either scan or key the Purchase Order number into the scanner.
The Receive program prompts you to scan the UPC/EAN of an item and then enter the quantity
received.
When you are finished, the items are set aside in preparation for put-away.
The purchasing manager reviews what was scanned using a web-based browser interface. The quantity
received is displayed and they can edit the number they want to accept or reject due to
damage, over-shipment, etc.
When the purchasing mangers clicks the 'Accept Items' button, the received items are committed to
inventory.
This is a great improvement over most receiving processes in use today.
