Setting up Logistics Statuses for Events
The statuses of sales and purchase documents can be Open, Pending Approval, Pending Prepayment, or Released when they are registered into the system. You require more details for your customer service, logistics planning, and warehouse management.
When you use bins in your warehouse, you want to know if it contains products that you can pick and if these goods are not blocked, in quarantine, or in any other status.
When you prepare pallets for shipping, you want to know the status of the pallet by its license plate. Is the pallet blocked, sealed, ready to load, or in any other status.
Setting up Logistics Statuses for Events, needs to be done on the Sales or Purchase Blanket Order, so you can cover all your needs to support status flows in these areas, including Allowed Next Steps, Allowed Back Steps, Display Order, and other features.
