The Inbound Shipment Console provides information on inbound shipments and containers. This console provides sellers, node users, and carriers with information necessary to coordinate and ensure on-time delivery of shipments.
You can either include a purchase order release into an existing inbound shipment or create an inbound shipment for a set of orders.
An inbound shipment as an entity can be used in a delivery plan by attaching it to a load. For more information about configuring delivery plans and loads, see the Configuring Sterling Logistics Management.
