The ASNs Page (Advanced Shipping Notices) provides a centralized view of all inbound shipments, making it easier to track, manage, and update shipments as they arrive at the warehouse. With real-time receiving and configurable notifications, you can streamline your receiving processes and maintain accurate inventory records.
Tip: You can quickly identify ASNs by their Order ID, which always begins with GVA.
What is an ASN?
An Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) is a notification sent to Borderless360 to provide details about an incoming shipment. It helps streamline the receiving process by giving us advanced visibility into what’s arriving, when it will arrive, and how it should be handled.
