Receipt Advice Process

The Receipt Advice scheduled process transmits information regarding the expected inbound shipment of goods from an outsourcer (Logistics Service Provider's Customer) to a Logistics Service Provider (LSP) to expect inbound goods.

Receipt Advice Information

The receipt advice contains all necessary information for the physical material receipt and material reconciliation such as item information, quantity expected date of receipt, and expected location of receipt. The receipt advice also contains special instructions such as inspection, labeling, and so forth.

Advance Shipment Notice

The receipt advice might or might not be accompanied by an ASN. The receipt advice by itself provides enough information to perform the receipt of goods in the warehouse.
