D. HOW TO RETURN PARCELS TO STOCK FROM A “Draft” shipment

Products can also be put back in stock from a “Draft” (main) Shipment. This may be needed if parcels have been left behind and no shipment for customer X is planned in the near future. Instead of keeping the products in parcels on a “Draft” (main) Shipment (with approaching expiry dates) it might be wise to put them back in stock and to ship them to another project or use them locally, while other items will be picked when a shipment will be organized for customer X.

Note that parcels can be returned from a “Ready to ship” (sub) Shipment to a “Draft” (main) Shipment (as described in previous section) and then directly returned from the “Draft” (main) Shipment to the stock. However, this should be done in 2 steps.

Go to: Warehouse / Warehouse Management / Deliveries / Shipment

1. Open the “Draft” (main) Shipment from which you would like to return parcels. The state of the Shipment should be “Draft” and it will necessarily be a main SHIP.
2. Click on the “Return Packs to stock…” button at the bottom of the screen.

     3. Using the pencil icons, select the parcels you wish to return to stock. If Parcel ID is defined for parcels, the user need to select Parcels ID to return

     4. Click on the “Return Packs” button.

The system updates an open the corresponding main PICK. Returned items have been moved from “Shipment” back to the stock. Returned items are “Available” on the initial Picking Ticket(s), ready to be picked when a shipment will be organized.

On the main SHIP, the returned parcels are still visible, but their destination location has changed (see below) and is now the stock (Cross docking in this case). The State of the returned parcel are now “Returned“, indicating that the parcels have been returned to stock.
