Optimal PO receipt procedure?

edited Dec 16, 2024 12:23PM in Ask A Guru 2 comments

Hi all, I'm hoping to get your theories and best practices for optimizing inventory receipt with a number of questions.

  1. IRs don't have print options of any kind until they're saved. I would have expected to be able to print one so the worker knows which bins the items need to go into.
    How do you otherwise instruct a worker which items go in which bin(s) on an IR?
  2. What's the optimum bin per item type allocation? In my head, the ideal setup would be to have 1 primary bin per item, that only that item is allowed to sit in. Then have a number of bulk bins for overflow of items that can be shared by any. But never would I have 2 different items sit in any one bin. Thoughts or things you'd do differently?
