Batch Receiving is a process whereby you
receive information through an EDI advance shipment notification (ASN) about a shipment
that has been shipped by your vendor and is now in transit. Benefits:
· Product that is in transit from the vendor, is visible to
manufacturing, receiving and purchasing.
· Quantities in an in transit disposition are viewed by
Distribution Requirements Planning (DRP) and Material Requirements Planning (MRP) as
unavailable quantities.
· Receiving transactions are
automatically received into the PRMS system, eliminating the keying of receiving
transactions.
· Eliminates or reduces data processing
errors created by the manual entry of receiving transactions.
· Mass disposition movement can be
performed for in transit receivers, as well as regular receiving transactions.
Features:
· Automatic assignment of lot numbers.
· Maintenance programs give the user the
tools they need to edit or correct data transmitted through EDI.
· System assigns a receipt in transit
number (RIT) to each receiver flagged as in transit.
· Receipt In transit Maintenance and Mass
Disposition Update allow the user to select additional receiving transaction for mass
disposition movement.
