Every Delivery Recorded.Every Shortage Caught at the Gate.

Most inbound breakdowns happen in the 30 minutes between a truck arriving and cargo being stacked on a shelf. CargoClave structures that window so nothing enters your warehouse without being verified, recorded, and assigned.

THE INBOUND PROBLEM

What Goes Wrong Without a Structured Inbound Process

Unplanned arrivals

Trucks arrive without prior notice. No one knows what is coming, how much, in what condition, or where it should go. The dock team improvises every time.

GRN completed on paper — or not at all

Quantities are written on notebooks. Damaged goods are not photographed. Rejected items leave without a formal record. Disputes with suppliers come weeks later, with no proof.

Putaway by memory

Stock is placed wherever space is found. Location is not recorded. When a pick happens three days later, no one knows where the goods went.

Complete Control from Gate to Shelf

Everything you need to ensure accurate receiving, quality checks, and putaway logic in one seamless flow.

Inbound Planning

Schedule expected arrivals with cargo details, vehicle info, and ETA before the truck reaches your gate.

Inbound Planning

Live GRN Capture

Record received quantities line by line against the delivery note in real time — at the dock, not back at the desk.

Live GRN Capture

Acceptance & Rejection

Mark every cargo line as accepted, rejected, damaged, or short with reason codes. Every decision is formally logged.

Acceptance & Rejection

Photographic Evidence

Capture and link shortage or damage photos directly to the GRN record on the spot.

Bin-Level Putaway

Assign accepted stock to an exact zone, rack, and bin the moment it clears QC. Traceable from arrival to shelf.

Inbound Plan

Before the truck leaves the supplier, create an inbound plan in CargoClave. Record the supplier, commodity, expected quantity, ASN number, vehicle, driver, and ETA. The warehouse team knows exactly what is coming — before it arrives.

Gate Entry

When the vehicle reaches the gate, create a gate entry linked to the inbound plan. Vehicle registration, driver details, LR/BL number, and seal number are recorded. The system auto-fills details from the plan. Arrival is timestamped and the gate status goes live.

GRN & Quality Check

At the dock, record the actual received quantity against the expected. Mark each line as accepted, rejected, or damaged with reason codes and remarks. Upload the delivery challan, LR copy, and QC report directly to the GRN record. Only QC-passed stock moves forward.

Putaway

Accepted stock is assigned to an exact zone, rack, and bin inside the warehouse. Partial putaway is supported — stock can go to multiple bin locations if needed. The moment putaway is saved, stock becomes visible in inventory.

Inventory Updated

Stock is now live in the system. Available quantity reflects exactly what was received, accepted, and stored. The inbound plan is closed. The warehouse team can see the stock. Planning can begin.

WHAT YOU AVOID

Receiving disputes, phantom inventory, missing inbound records, and unaccounted rejections.

All eliminated when every truck goes through a structured GRN workflow.
