Update Order Receipt Overview

The Update Order Receipt message creates or updates the items and details of an inbound purchase, return, or transfer receipt of serialized product (based on delivery number). Serial numbers for the outermost handling units (e.g. pallets, cases) are specified and TraceLink retrieves the full aggregation hierarchy. Serial numbers for individual units can also be specified.

Applicable shipments include intra-company transfers, where there is no change of ownership (e.g. goods transferred from plant to warehouse or from warehouse A to warehouse B within the same company). It also includes transfers with third-party partners such as CMOs or 3PLs.

Serialized products can be received only if they are in the Shipped state or Pending Receipt state (e.g. the delivery has arrived at the receiving site but is not yet received). If receiptComplete is set to true and a successful response is received, then all associated serial numbers will be set to Available.
