Receiving 3PL goods

When a shipment arrives at your warehouse, use the Goods In (3PL) feature to receive items into inventory. This moves stock from the shipment into your warehouse and updates inventory levels.

The Goods In (3PL) page automatically shows only shipments that have items still to be received, making it easy to focus on what needs processing.
