User Manual 2.2/Material Receipt

Materials Receipt window

Definition

A materials receipt is the shipment document stating what has been received from a specific supplier. This receipt may be generated manually or created from a Purchase Order or Vendor Invoice. Without this document, the system does not know that new materials are on hand.

Tabs

• Materials Request: Describes and creates a materials receipt
• Receipt Line: If no purchase order or invoice exists, this tab creates a materials receipt manually

Process Information

There are two possibilities when creating a goods receipt.

• Copying lines from an order and including them in the desired goods receipt.

• Creating it manually from the beginning. This is useful when creating a goods receipt without a specific order. In this case it is necessary to manually define lines or products in the goods receipts line tab.

To create the goods receipt beforehand, it is necessary to introduce attributes to products which have an associated set of attributes.

• Calculate Transport Cost: Once necessary data is defined, the button calculates the information. The button also gives the possibility of finding the cheapest transport option and calculating the number of packages follow the rules defined in the corresponding category.
