The activities associated with the handling and movement of product (materials, semi-finished product, goods, merchandize) to a storage location. This includes determining the optimal storage location, assigning equipment and operators and recording the associated inventory transactions.

An important part of a S2 process is the ability to track the order specifics. This requires the inventory to be recorded using a reference to the purchase order number, production order number or customer order number. This inventory is typically considered Sales Order Stock.

Use Cases

• In a manufacturing plant: Product in raw material warehouse awaiting pull by Manufacturing process
• In Retail: Product stored in Storeroom awaiting Special Order Service Customer pick-up

Notes

This process is complete when the product has been deposited in an inventory location. If multiple movements are required then each of these movements are a unique instance of the Put Away process. Generally, moving product to on/near production line storage is considered part of Transfer and/or Make. For such use cases the put away may consist of a notification only (ready for transfer).
