Field help (SSRGLOCDEF)

This field is displayed if the entry transaction authorizes receipts on dock. Use this field to enter the dock type location used by default for the stock receipts to be performed. A selection window is used to select the dock type locations defined in the receipt site. The specified dock location must be associated with the warehouse, when the latter is specified.

A dock location corresponds to a ‘pending put-away’ (storage) location. It is used to receive the goods quickly, and later to more precisely identify and store these goods. This put-away is achieved using the Put-away plan function. The stock detail information, such as the license plate number, lot, sublot and serial number, does not need to be entered right away. However, for products managed in stock, the mandatory information is the receipt unit, the quantity and the stock status.
When a license plate number is entered, all the information related to stock line detail should be entered (lot, sublot, serial number). Thus, even if the location type is ‘dock’, it will not be possible to access the line from the Put-away plan since the line is considered as put away.
