Purchase Order Receiving

The Purchase Orders Receiving window is accessed via the Purchase Order Receiving function (Logistics menu).

It is worth noting that it is only possible to receive approved (or blanket) orders (the search list displays only approved or blanket orders).

This window permits the user to select an order and see the status of its order lines. The number of the first available ‘receipt note’ is displayed.

Fields

Transaction Date:

The current date is proposed by default.

Order #:

The purchase order number given to the vendor.

The lines are automatically selected (i.e. with X in the Sel. column) only if the warehouse and the default inventory status for each item in the order has been entered in the Item window. If a line is not delivered, the « selected » status can be cancelled by clicking in the Sel column.

By clicking on the OK button, the orders are validated, the selected lines are received in the corresponding warehouse (under the corresponding status).

Some receipts are « customized »: for example a receipt with a quantity that is lower than the remaining quantity to be delivered which is defined in the order line, or a receipt with a status or a warehouse different from these defined in the item window. In order to realize such a « customized » receipt, one has to click on a line in the Manual column table.
