Redwood: Capture a Supplier License Plate Number for Reference When Receiving Goods

Even if your warehouse isn't utilizing License Plate Numbers (LPNs) in day-to-day operations, it's possible that your suppliers ship products with LPNs on the packaging or shipping documents. In such cases, it's crucial to record the supplier's LPN when you  receive goods to ensure that you have it readily available for future audits or issue resolution. With this feature, you can now easily capture the supplier-provided LPN during the receiving process to store it exclusively as a reference for the specific shipment.

The following receiving related tasks now support From LPN and To LPN fields to capture this information:

  • Expected Shipment Lines
  • Awaiting Inspection
  • Awaiting Put Away
  • Corrections
  • Returns

Expected Shipment Lines

This feature ensures you have the necessary information captured and available for your supplier shipments for reference as needed.
