    Goods receipt with JTL-WMS Mobile

    General information

    In the goods receipt, there are two processes, in which JTL-WMS Mobile is involved. On the one hand, items can be checked, posted and stored in a goods receipt location and then posted to the storage locations using the Storage function in JTL-WMS Mobile. On the other hand, JTL-WMS Mobile offers the possibility to perform both steps at once. The goods can thus be checked, posted and stored directly at the storage location. For more information on the processes, please go here.

    Performing goods receipt with goods receipt locations

    Requirements

    • You have already defined one or more goods receipt locations in your warehouse.

    Process description

    You receive goods from your supplier and post them to the goods receipt location. You can do this with JTL-WMS or JTL-WMS Mobile. During the posting process, you already enter the item quantity, SLED, batch and, if required, a serial number.

    You can then transfer the goods to the storage locations via the main menu in the JTL-WMS Mobile App under Storage.

    The advantage of working with goods receipt locations is that you can pick goods directly from the goods receipt location.

    Note: If you are working with multiple goods receipt locations, the user must select the desired location in the very first step. Blocked goods receipt locations cannot be used in this dialogue.

    Direct goods receipt

    Requirements

    • You have already activated the With storage location selection check box in your warehouse settings for your WMS warehouse in the JTL-WMS Mobile tab.

    Process description

    In this process, the goods are taken directly to the storage locations when goods are received using JTL-WMS Mobile. This process has advantages and disadvantages, which are described below.

    Advantage: You can post the goods to your system with just one operation without intermediate storage. During this process, no additional workstation is required for the goods receipt location. All steps can be carried out with JTL-WMS Mobile, including taking the goods out of the delivery boxes, as well as inspecting, counting and transferring the goods to the storage locations.

    Disadvantage: You do not have the option of packing goods directly during the goods receipt using EazyShipping or filling shipping boxes during the goods receipt. It is also more difficult to check the total quantities of purchase orders if mistakes have been made during the counting process. Not all items are in the goods receipt location but are spread over several storage locations. It is therefore more difficult to determine whether counting mistakes have been made or whether a shortage has actually been delivered.

    Your task/initial situation

    You have received a purchase order and would like to post the delivered goods to your warehouse.
