The Inbound Deliveries page in Flexe helps you access and manage everything associated with inbounds. You can use it to:

• Create and schedule inbound deliveries to warehouses. To learn more, go Creating Inbound Deliveries. 
• View and check the status of inbounds for your reservation(s). 
• Manage inbounds and purchase orders (POs). To learn more, go to Managing Inbound Deliveries for Shippers. 

Navigating the Inbound Deliveries Page

Select Inbound Deliveries from the left menu in Flexe to open the Inbound Deliveries page.

This page tracks all your deliveries and purchase orders, and is where you can create, view and manage inbounds. 

Use the New, In Progress, Altered and Completed tabs to view deliveries by status. You can also use the filter buttons and text boxes to access deliveries by specific properties: 

Delivery ID	Use this option to filter by the unique number assigned to each inbound delivery in Flexe
Estimated Delivery	Filter by the estimated date that the inbound delivery should arrive
Type	Filter by the type of delivery. The icons in this column indicate whether the inbound delivery is a single SKU pallet or a floor-loaded/mixed SKU pallet container
Details	Use this option to filter by the internal ID assigned to the inbound delivery
Items (SKUs)	Use this option to filter by specific SKUs included in the inbound delivery
UPC	Use this option to filter by UPCs assigned to items in the inbound delivery
Qty	Filter by the estimated number of pallets needed for the inbound delivery
Reservation	Use this option to filter inbound deliveries by reservation.

Reviewing Deliveries

Once a warehouse confirms and schedules a delivery you’ll receive an email notification. 

Note: If you can't find this message in your inbox, try your Spam or Junk folders. If you still can't find it, contact us at [e-mail] for additional help.

You can access confirmed and scheduled deliveries from the In Progress tab on the Inbound Deliveries page. 

Select a delivery to open the details page, where you can review additional information about the delivery and monitor the receiving process at the warehouse. 

Delivery Information & Status

The Delivery Information section at the top of the page displays important information about the inbound, including the Type, delivery Date, Trailer #, Seal # and any special instructions for the warehouse.

It also tracks the current status of the shipment at the warehouse: 

• New - Newly created deliveries
• Confirmed - Deliveries the warehouse has confirmed and scheduled
• Arrived - Deliveries that have arrived at the warehouse
• Receiving - Deliveries that are being received into inventory on Flexe mobile devices
• Completed - Deliveries that have been fully received and finalized.

Warehouse Information

Use the Warehouse Information section to find general information about the warehouse--including the primary contact you or a carrier can reach out to. 

Delivery Summary

Go to the Delivery Summary section to track receiving progress at the warehouse. You can review Expected quantities in the delivery against Received quantities physically received at the warehouse. 

You can also use the tabs across the top of the section to review delivery details by SKUs, LPNs and/or Purchase Orders. 

Note: If an item was received in both cartons and eaches, the Delivery Summary will automatically convert and display both units of measure (UoM).  

For inbounds in the Receiving or Completed status, a warning message shows at the top of the Delivery Summary whenever received quantities don't match expected quantities. Any items with a variance are highlighted in yellow, as well.
