Output Product Extra

Send rework to warehouse

A workflow-style screen is then available to the warehouse, and the Outstanding tab shows all jobs waiting to be started. Here jobs can be started and a job card will be produced.

There is an In Progress tab showing all jobs currently being worked on.
If the warehouse requires more of a particular product (for example more boxes, dividers, bottles) then these can be added here, losses can be recorded, the putaway note can be printed here and the job can be finished.

The confirmation tab allows them or more senior staff to confirm the final quantities, storage locations and charges and complete the job which automatically records the losses, receipts the pre-advice created at the very beginning and sends a receipt advice to the customer - stocks are immediately available for use without requiring any additional admin and final charges calculated and attached to the pre advice automatically.
