• Inbound or Outbound process which undergoes multiple process steps from one stage to another is termed as POSC  
• POSC is primarily used to make complex type of putaways or picking.    
• POSC only works with Handling Units, so it is required to pack the product once they arrive in warehouse or it should automatically create HU when receive in warehouse.
• Once product is received in warehouse, it is subject to below process steps for Put-away
  • Unload 
  • Count 
  • Deconsolidation 
  • Quality inspection 
  • Value Added Services (VAS) 
  • Packing  
• Outbound process (Stock removal) steps include Picking, Packing, VAS, Staging, and Loading.

Select Task #17 and execute 

Repeat same steps for Task #18 

2 HUs created on EWM side(Repacking) 

Task 17 and 18 is not active, because we didnt set Status to Complete 

Set status to Complete 

Select rows of Task #17 and #18 which has status Blank, confirm in background for final Putaway

Task 17 and 18 is complete
