Containers goods receipt

Receipt, handling, sampling and storage of test and reference items should be clearly defined activities, with well-defined procedures. Also procedures must be provided for the records that are to be kept as evidence of good practice and the identification information on storage containers. 

The SCOR systematic places return processes both upstream and downstream of the supply chain. The source return processes refer to the return of raw material or components to suppliers, whereas the deliver return processes address the receipt of returned finished goods from customers. Furthermore there is the return of empty containers. For all situations, three different return processes are defined (for defective products, MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) products, and excess products). They are not mutually exclusive and can (or even should) be exercised simultaneously, depending on the chosen supply chain strategy and other factors such as product complexity and service level offered to the customer.
