Pending Receive

Pending Receive shows all deliveries that are awaiting receipt at their destination. Use this page to receive incoming deliveries and update inventory. A Start Delivery button at the top of the Deliveries page (visible on every tab) lets you start a new delivery from a guided workflow instead of receiving one that already exists — see Starting a Delivery from a Workflow below.

Assets → Deliveries on the Pending tab. Start Delivery sits top right; counter cards for Pending, In Transit, Delivered, and Canceled sit above the tab row. Workflow-started rows (e.g. the WTS- prefixed ones) show View Workflow / Details instead of Receive Items / Cancel Delivery.

Overview

When items are shipped from a supplier or transferred between warehouses, they appear in Pending Receive until someone confirms receipt.

Common Tasks

Starting a Delivery from a Workflow

  1. On the Deliveries page (any tab), click Start Delivery at the top right.
  2. In the Start a Delivery dialog, pick a Delivery workflow from the dropdown — workflows are grouped into Prebuilt and Custom. The built-in Delivery: Warehouse Transfer workflow is pre-selected by default, and the dialog remembers the last workflow you started so the next one is a single click.
  3. Click Start.
  4. The workflow's first task opens automatically, assigned to you — for the built-in Warehouse Transfer workflow this is Submit Transfer Request, where you pick the source and destination warehouses and the items and quantities to move.

The Delivery: Warehouse Transfer workflow moves stock between warehouses through five steps: Submit Transfer Request → Approve Transfer → Pack → Dispatch → Confirm Delivery. Nothing moves until the request is approved — approving is what creates the actual delivery record (and parks the source stock for the move); packing, dispatching, and confirming then work exactly like the manual Truck Load stages, except the workflow — not a button on this page — decides when each one is allowed to happen.

Tip

A delivery created this way shows View Workflow and Details in its Actions column here instead of Receive and Cancel — the workflow is the only thing that can move it forward. Click the row (or View Workflow) to open its process timeline and act on whichever step is currently active; Details still opens the delivery's own detail page, which is where the actual packing happens during the Pack step. Canceling this kind of delivery is done from its process timeline, not with a Cancel button on this page.
