The first step is the planning phase. The warehouse manager or the person responsible for receiving goods needs an overview of the expected arrivals to plan the work and assign tasks to individual warehouse workers.

1. Click Inventory management> Periodic> Arrival overviewto open the Arrival overview - Warehouse: %1, Dock: %2, Journal name: %3form.

Under Show lines, select All. In the Rangesection, type " 0" in the Days forwardand leave the Days backblank. In the Warehousesfield, type the names of the warehouses for which you want to view expected arrivals, for example "GW, MW".

1. Click the Updatebutton to display arrivals based on the ranges used.

The Receiptslist now shows arrivals that are expected on or before the current date.

When the goods arrive in the inbound dock, the warehouse manager or the warehouse worker verifies the information about the paperwork accompanying the goods and compares it with the information in Microsoft Dynamics AX. Each order that has been physically checked can be pre-registered in Microsoft Dynamics AX so that it is visible to other users that the receipt is in progress.

1. Click Inventory management> Periodic> Arrival overviewto open the Arrival overview - Warehouse: %1, Dock: %2, Journal name: %3form.

2. Use the options in the Rangesection to filter on the information supplied with the goods, for example the Vendor reference.

3. Under Lines, select the Select for arrivalcheck box for the relevant lines and click the Start arrivalbutton.

   When all lines for a receipt have arrived, pre-registration can be done by selecting the Select for arrivalcheck box under Receiptsinstead of under Lines.

An arrival journal is now created and information about the selected lines is added.
