Blind Receiving is performed if the client does not send an ASN or PO and there is no paperwork attached to the inbound shipment. It may also be used when inventory is found in the fulfillment center that is not showing in the WMS.
If this situation has occurred for your client, follow these steps for blind receiving:
Step 1: Generate Receipt for Blind Receiving
The operator selects Blind Receiving Details from menu.
The operator signs into (scans barcode) a work bench.
The work bench in JASCI is tied to a printer where the pallets labels will print
If a reference number is provided by the client the operator will enter the reference number (ASN number).
If no reference number is provided the operator selects “No PO” on handheld and the system will generate an ASN/PO number for the receipt
Step 2: Scanning & Inspecting Product
Enter/Scan the product to be received.
Upon a valid product scan the operator will inspect the product for damages
If product is flagged for serial, lot, and/or expiry capture, JASCI will prompt the user for data capture
If the product scan is valid, depending on the client’s SOP, a blind LPN (supplier/client LPN) should be utilized
If no damages are found operator moves onto Step 4 or Step 5 depending on the value of the product.
If product is damaged operator follows Step 3.
An invalid product scan triggers an error message to be displayed and the operator will be reverted to the Enter/Scan product screen.
