Receive Full Tanks and Barrels

Receiving full tanks or barrels involves the receipt of bulk material in full vessels, such as barrels or portable tanks from another facility, or from a third party within the facility for specialized processing.

A receive full vessels internal operation:

  • Inherits the blend lot details of the received bulk material.

  • Increases inventory by the amount received. Inventory is decreased for the item that is cross-referenced with the material type on the bill of lading vessel.

  • Retains the blend lot details from the bill of lading of the received bulk material from the associated ship operation.

  • Updates the associated vessel master record so that the vessel is in the new facility.

    Once a ship operation is closed, the tank status is updated to Not In Branch in the shipping facility. When the receive operation is closed, the tank status in the receiving facility is updated to Active. ERP inventory is decreased for the item that is cross-referenced with the material type on the bill of lading vessel.
