What is required for the putaway process in SAP Extended Warehouse Management?

The putaway process in SAP Extended Warehouse Management is triggered by an inbound delivery order. This document plays a crucial role as it signals that goods have arrived at the warehouse and are ready to be stored. The inbound delivery order contains essential information about the items, their quantities, and the expected storage location within the warehouse.

The putaway process utilizes the details from the inbound delivery to guide warehouse personnel in accurately and efficiently moving stock from the receiving area to specific storage locations. This ensures optimal warehouse organization and inventory management.

In contrast, other options, such as stock transport orders, typically deal with transferring stock between different locations and are not used specifically for the putaway of goods in a receiving context. Similarly, sales orders relate to outgoing shipments rather than the storage of inbound goods, while warehouse transfer orders are used for moving stock already within the warehouse rather than for receiving new inventory.
