Classification: IMPORTANT
The Arriving waybill (WBI) application contains critical information about shipment contents, senders and recipients details, addresses, the point of origin, intended routes and estimated times of departure and arrivals.
We are now further enhancing the application in several areas to increase traceability and visibility into the goods in transit.
To accommodate these enhancements, a re-design of the Arriving waybill (WBI) application has been done along with related changes in the Receive goods (RPP) and Purchase order response (SOA) applications.
Listed below are the key benefits in this update:
The Arriving waybill (WBI) application has been re-designed allowing for a smoother workflow as critical details are always visible while details are logically categorized into the new tabs: Expected goods, Received goods and Shipments and customsdetails.
Purchaser order response items (SOAITEM) can be added to an Arriving waybill (WBI) as an expectation of what’s in transit from the supplier.
The Arriving waybill identifier (WBI) will be linked and referenced in the Purchase order response item (SOAITEM) application, in the new field Expected arriving waybill.
New date fields are available in the Arriving waybills (WBI) application allowing the addition of information about Expected time of delivery, Actual time of delivery, Expected time of delivery and Actual time of arrival.
This information will also be referenced and available as columns in the Purchase order response item (SOAITEM) application.
When in the process of creating Goods receptions (SSA), it will be possible to multi-select Purchase order items (SPOITEM) and Purchase order response items (SOAITEM) in the Receive goods (RPP) application, even if the document identifier is not the same.
Multi-select will be supported when registering Goods receptions (SSA) received in a specific Arriving waybill (WBI).
Navigating directly to the carrier's tracking web site can now be done from the Arriving waybill (WBI) application.
