Redwood: Use Additional Receipt Delivery Capabilities

When your organization has a single receiving location for all orders, regardless of the final destination, for example, a warehouse stocking location, you need to ensure that the orders that are not put away in the warehouse, are delivered to their final destination.

In this update, you can use the receipt delivery capability to support delivery of expense orders and Periodic Automatic Replenishment (PAR) locations. You can designate any subinventory as a location that requires a receipt delivery instead of a put away. You can use a single workflow to move goods from the receiving dock to their final destination if they aren't destined for a storage location in the warehouse or central stockroom.

Additionally, to make the receipt delivery process more efficient, you can automatically assign deliveries to carts and capture a single signature for multiple deliveries that are for the same person or location. Finally, to keep requesters informed about their  delivery status, you can notify users about a change in the delivery status.

To complete multiple deliveries that are for the same person or location, you can select multiple deliveries on the Delivery Goods page, click on More Actions Icon and then click on Deliver Together.

Select Multiple Deliveries to Deliver Together

You can capture a single signature and complete the deliveries using Complete Delivery button.

                              

You can notify requesters through email or SMS whenever the delivery status changes from open to pending and from pending to delivered.

Email - Delivery Update

This feature provides you more flexibility to perform deliveries to a final destination when the goods aren't destined for the central warehouse or stockroom, increases the efficiency of your receipt deliveries, and provides additional insight into the status of your receipt deliveries.

Steps to Enable

To enable delivery creation for a subinventory, select the Autocreate deliveries checkbox for the subinventory under the Configure Subinventories task.

Enable delivery creation for a subinventory

To automatically assign deliveries to carts, select the default delivery cart in the following tasks:
a) Inventory Zones

Inventory Zones Task

b)    Receiving Parameters

Receiving Parameters Task

Logic to identify a default delivery cart for a delivery:

• If a default delivery cart is specified in the Inventory Zones task, deliveries for subinventories within that zone are automatically assigned to the designated cart.
• If no default cart is found through the Inventory Zones task for a given delivery, it will be assigned to the cart defined in the Receiving Parameters task.
• If a default delivery cart cannot be identified from either source, the delivery will remain in Open status and will not be assigned to any cart.
