Check Inventory and Warehouse Stocks (Stock Overview)
As a logistics personnel, you can check the inventory and warehouse stock levels using the Stock Overview module.
Record Movement of Goods into Warehouse (Goods Receiving)
A goods receipt is the physical inbound movement of goods or materials from an external vendor or from production into a storage location/warehouse.
Record Movement of Goods from Warehouse (Goods Issue)
A goods issue is an outbound movement of goods in the form of material withdrawal or shipment from a storage location or warehouse.
Count inventory/warehouse items at regular intervals (Cycle Counting)
As an inventory manager/personnel, you can count items, in a location, at specific intervals like weekly or monthly and so on. For example, if item A is a fast-moving item or critical to your operation then you can do cycle count for item A every week and ensure the stock on shelves matches with the inventory documents.
Record stock transfers
When you receive a request for stock transfer within the organization, you can use the Transfer Posting module to manage stock transfers.
Execute Consignment Audits
Consignment Audit is the process of cycle counting against the physical inventory documents for Bill of Materials, Batch Managed Items, and Materials.
Confirm Services Availed from Internal or External Vendors
When a service is requested, specifications such as the price and quantity are captured using a service master record. Use the Services Confirmation module to confirm the services that are availed from an internal or external vendor.
Kitting and Staging Materials (Kitting)
Kitting and Staging helps warehouse operators to KIT (collect) the stock items of an order and place order for non stock items. Once all items in the order are kitted and staged using Kitting module, warehouse operators issue them to the maintenance technicians at one go and help complete the work with ease.
Manage Inbound and Outbound Processes
Use the Inbound & Outbound Processes module to manage the inbound and outbound tasks including picking and packing the material, shipping from warehouse to the destination and sending the material to the put away.
Manage goods movement and stock management (Extended Warehouse Management)
Use the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module to effectively manage material flow and high volume processing requirements in warehouses/distribution centers.

Designed primarily for the oil and gas industry, the Remote Logistics Management (RLM) module supports the offshore logistics processes.

Assign/update storage bin for materials
Use the Storage Bin Update (IM) module to assign/update storage bin for materials. You can assign multiple materials to a storage bin.
Create storage bins and bin labels
Use the Bin Creation module to create bins and print the bin labels. When you add a Bin Number in Online mode, the application validates if the Storage Bin exists in SAP. Once the bin is created, you can print the labels.

Use the Material Document Display module to view the material documents. This functionality is same as MB03 transaction in SAP.
Create Shipment and Assign Deliveries
When you receive requirements using a purchase, stock transport order or sales order, you verify the availability of stock or material, create deliveries and group them based on factors like transportation planning, picking address, delivery address, and cost. You then create a Shipment and assign these deliveries.
