Shipping / Receiving
What Process It Enforces
SpudERP’s Shipping and Receiving module enforces accurate inbound and outbound goods tracking:
-
Verifies items against purchase orders upon arrival
-
Flags shortages, overages, or damages immediately
-
Creates packing lists and shipping labels for outbound shipments
-
Logs carrier details, tracking numbers, and shipping costs
It ensures smooth, traceable material flow into and out of the business.
How It Integrates

Warehouse Management: Received items are automatically assigned storage locations.
-
Inventory Tracking: Real-time inventory is updated during receiving and shipping.
-
Work Orders: Ties outbound shipments to completed work orders for billing.
