Receive one PO into multiple warehouses
If you import from one supplier but distribute across several locations — an inspection sample to HQ, the bulk to a 3PL, more again to a second 3PL — you've been forced to fight the system. SKU treated the PO's destination warehouse as the single truth, so the only way to record reality was to split one commercial order into multiple POs and reconcile the duplicates against your vendor's invoices and deposits by hand. Multi-warehouse receiving changes that. The inbound shipment is now the authoritative unit of "where the goods land," and each shipment on a PO can be sent to a different warehouse — while the PO itself stays a single commercial document.
