In the WMS feature in Mekari Desty, you can create transactions for incoming goods (inbound) to manage the receipt of goods in the warehouse through the Incoming Goods menu. This process helps ensure that transactions for received goods are processed and stored, and that stock is increased according to the locations available in the warehouse. The following are the steps.

  1. Go to the Goods Receipt menu.

  2. To record incoming goods, click “+New incoming goods”. New incoming goods can only be created by the Warehouse Manager, Owner, or Ultimate roles.

  3. You will then see the following form.
