Hi

Inbound processing covers the physical inbound delivery processing that succeeds the procurement process. It includes ASN processing, physical Goods Receipt and putaway of materials in Warehouse Management up to sending the proof of delivery to the business partners

Outbound processing comprises the preparation of goods to be delivered from a warehouse to a receiving location. Outbound processing within the scope of warehouse management typically comprises activities like the notification of goods to be supplied from a warehouse to a customer for which the outbound delivery serves as the reference document, picking, packing, physical goods issue in warehouse, loading, goods issue and goods issue posting to IM, advising advanced shipping notifications to business partners and, obtaining a proof-of-delivery from the receiving business partner

Hi Rohit

In general anything that comes in stock in our warehouse can be attributed to Inbound process. For Ex:Goods receipts etc

and anything that goes out of the warehouse is outbound like for ex:Goods issue to customer or sending componennts to vendor etc

Hello,

The Inbound process comprises all the steps of an external procurement process that occur when the goods are received. The process is: Purchase order --> Goods Receipt, it is a follow-on activity to a purchase order.

The outbound delivery forms the basis for goods issue posting, The data required for goods issue posting is copied from the outbound delivery into the goods issue document.
