Shipping and receiving manages goods entering and leaving a business.
- Receiving: Accept deliveries, compare them with purchase orders, inspect for damage or shortages, record what arrived, and route items to storage or the right department.
- Shipping: Verify customer orders, pack and label items, prepare shipping documents, arrange carrier pickup, and record tracking information.
- Inventory control: Update stock records when goods arrive or leave and investigate discrepancies.
- Problem resolution: Handle incorrect deliveries, damaged goods, returns, and shipping delays.
- Safety and organization: Store and move goods safely and keep receiving and shipping areas orderly.
The goal is to make sure the right goods arrive and leave accurately, safely, and on time.
