The reception department is receiving all the packages that are arriving in the company. Then those packages have to be given to the appropriate personnel for incoming inspection and opening.
So, is there a way in Cetec that Reception can record that a package (relevant with a PO) has arrived and notify the relevant employee to come and take it?
Here’s how you can separate your receiving from your inspection process as packages arrive.
We have a config setting called “set received parts to pending.” Set this to “1.” Your receiving personnel can record that a package has arrived (but not perform an inspection) through Warehouse >> Receiving >> Receive Parts. This will quarantine the inventory pending an incoming inspection and prevent you from putting that inventory away into a bin within Cetec. This will also generate an incoming inspection object tied to the receipt.
Now your inspection personnel can navigate to the inspection by clicking Warehouse >> Receiving >> Incoming Inspections. This allows your inspection personnel to view a list of all pending inspections. Once your inspection personnel performs and records the inspection, the inventory will “unlock,” allowing you to put it away into a bin in Cetec.
