The following describes how to receive items on your handheld with a purchase order. This guide assumes that you have Bin Mandatory enabled for your location. If you are not using bins you may skip any step that refers to them.

Please note that if you have Bin Mandatory enabled it is recommended that you consider using inventory put-aways for more robust bin handling functionality. Please consult your Business Central partner for a recommendation specific to your situation.

From the WMS Express home screen, select Receive.

A list of available purchase orders will be displayed.

Scan the purchase order barcode to open the purchase order. If you do not have a barcode you can manually open the purchase order with a double-tap on the purchase order or by tapping the purchase order and selecting Menu > Choose—or, if your handheld has a physical keyboard—tapping the purchase order and pressing Enter.

The purchase order will open and display a list of items to receive.
