Notes

Typically this process is complete when the product is ready for put away or transfer. Some use cases require the unloading process to put the product away immediately. For example: For bulk products the (tanker, tanker truck or dump truck) unloading process cannot be separated from the put away process (storage tanks).

Generally the costs to S102 and Unload are part of CO11. For a distribution network the costs of these processes may be classified as CO12.
