Location Receive

The Location Receive module is used to confirm and record the receipt of stock that has been transferred from one warehouse or location to another. It ensures that inventory movement is traceable and verifiable at both ends — from dispatch to receipt. Alt text for the image

Step 3: Confirm Receipt​
