How to Assign a Product Status in Sage X3

Every product you receive from a supplier must have a status before it can move to the next step in its journey (to the warehouse, out to another customer, etc.) Sage X3 makes this process easy, allowing your received products to move on more quickly and allowing you to accept multiple shipments in a shorter amount of time.

 

How a product is assigned a status upon its receipt is determined by many factors. The hierarchy goes from the generic to the specific - Stock Management Rules - Product Category - Product Site - Product.
