Streamlined Workflow for the Inbound Receiving Process

Achieve rapid and accurate WMS document updates

E-Receive improves workflow for the inbound receiving process by adding barcode scanning support to your warehouse receiving area. The E-Receive module is completely embedded within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It automatically updates business system functions such as receipts against purchase orders, and inventory, on a real-time basis.

Using E-Receive, warehouse employees scan barcode-labeled items or cases, allowing for rapid and accurate WMS document updates inside the business system.

E-Receive can also be used to put initial barcodes on items and record their characteristics in the business system. This makes it simple to initiate barcoding in your warehouse as items are received.
