PO : Understanding Receipt Routing

If You want to track items from the moment that they leave a supplier's warehouse until they arrive in stock. Depending on the operation, several stops might exist between the two points, such as the dock, the staging area, inspection, and so forth.

You NEED to use receipt routing to track and move items through a series of operations that make up a receipt route.

You must define the operations that make up each receipt route. You must also determine the logistical and accounting updates that the system performs as you process items through a receipt route. After you create a receipt route, you can assign it to an item based on the supplier who provides the item.

Receipt Routing is of three types:

1. Direct
2. Standard 
3. Inspection

In Direct once the goods arrive at the destination, we directly move them to a specific Sub-Inv

In Standard once the goods are at the destination, we receive it at the receiving point first and then move them to the Sub-Inv.

In Inspection once the goods are at the destination, we receive it at the receiving point and then we perform inspection and accordingly we either accept it or reject them.
