The flow in the information system when receiving a shipment to the warehouse and subsequent shipping of 5 items to a vehicle usually involves the following stages:

  1. Receipt of shipment:

    • A goods receipt document is created in the system.
    • The quantity and characteristics of the goods are recorded, and the warehouse stock is updated.
  2. Stock update:

    • Inventory check or automatic update of stock data.
  3. Shipping:

    • A shipping document or invoice for 5 items is created.
    • The warehouse stock decreases by 5 units.
    • The goods are reserved or written off from the warehouse depending on system settings.
  4. Transfer to transport:

    • Information about transferring the goods to the vehicle is recorded, possibly including the transport number and driver.
  5. Reporting and analytics:

    • All operations are logged for subsequent analysis and accounting.

This is approximately how a standard business process looks in a warehouse management system (WMS) or ERP system, ensuring transparency and control over the movement of goods.
