Inbound Shipments

Inbound Shipments are entities in the system that capture the details of a shipment that is expected to arrive in a warehouse. This shipment has been shipped by a vendor satisfying one or more purchase orders or a transfer orders from another facility or a return from a customer. In order to distinguish various shipments, inbound shipments can be categorized using the shipment type.

If your Purchase Order contains Inventory Attributes on its details, and you create an Inbound Shipment using the action button Create, the same attributes will be propagated to the corresponding Inbound Shipment.

In the Create/Edit/Copy Panes of the Inbound Shipment Detail UI, if you add a PO using one of those panes, the application will copy the inventory attributes (a-g) from the PO to the inbound shipment.
