Put away stock
Move received material from the dock to its storage location so it becomes available to pick.
Putaway is the second half of receiving: moving stock off the receiving dock and into the bin where it belongs. A putaway task is created automatically when you post a receipt.
Put a task away
- Go to Warehouse > Putaway and open a pending task.
- Each line shows what was received and a suggested location. For each line, confirm the suggestion or pick a different destination bin.
- Select Post putaway to complete it.
What posting does
Completing the task posts a transfer transaction that moves the stock from the receiving location to each line's destination bin. Once it lands in a pickable, availability-holding location, the stock counts as available and can be picked.
Receiving dock -> Putaway (choose bin) -> Post -> stock available in its bin
The suggested location is a convenience; you always have the final say on where stock goes.
Where to go next
- See the receipt that created the task in Receive a purchase order.
- For task states, see Transfer, count, and task statuses.
- Keep your bins set up in Set up locations.
