Put Away Materials Using Transfer Requirements

Use the Putaway by TR sub-module to put away materials using Transfer Requirements (TR), in Foreground or Background mode.

A TR is a request to initiate goods movement from source storage bin to destination storage bin in the warehouse. You can move goods from a Warehouse Management storage location to an Inventory Management storage location using Transfer Requirements with Storage Unit Management.

You can perform the Putaway using TR for the inbound/outbound deliveries in Foreground and Background modes. Steps 1 to 4 are the same in both modes. After step 4, follow steps 5 to 11 for Foreground mode or steps 12 to 14 for Background mode.

  1. In the Home screen, tap Inbound & Outbound Processes.
  2. Tap Putaway by TR.
