An Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) is a document that shows the details of pending delivery. You can create an ASN by adding single or multiple PO line(s) and use it to put away the Inventory into your warehouse. Once you close an ASN, it will automatically generate an Item Receipt from the Purchase Order(s).
Here are the statuses for an ASN:
- Open: All of the ASN lines have 0 quantity put-away.
- In Receiving: At least one ASN line has more than 0 quantity put away into the location(s), but there is at least some quantity that has not been put away on a line.
- Received: All of the ASN lines have all of their quantities put away into the location(s).
- Closed: The ASN has been fully processed and closed.
- Void: The ASN has been voided and is no longer valid for receiving. Please note that only Open ASNs can be voided.
