I have the requirement to ensure that items that are received on a Purchase order cannot be picked or reserved to a Sales order until they have been put away into a bulk or picking location.
I think I should use Inventory status for this, but I am in two minds whether to use 'Blocked' or not.
In one scenario, I can see that an Inventory status (called, say 'Available') could be set on the sales order line. Items could be received on a PO with a different status, and the status changed to 'Available' as put away is completed. In this way, I don't think it is necessary to use a Blocked status.
Anyone have any opinions, either way?
