Goods receipts record what was physically received against a purchase order.

Recording a Receipt

  1. Open the approved or sent PO and click Receive Goods.
  2. Enter receipt date and optional supplier invoice reference.
  3. Enter quantity received for each line.
  4. Select the receiving location when Inventory locations are available.
  5. Enter batch or serial details if the Inventory product requires them.
  6. Save the receipt.

Partial Receipts

Multiple receipts can be recorded against the same PO. The PO becomes Partially Received until all ordered quantities have been received, then moves to Received.

Duplicate Invoice Reference Control

If configured, SikaBooks can block duplicate supplier invoice references on receipts for the same supplier. This reduces accidental duplicate receiving and invoice capture.

What Happens on Receipt

  • A goods receipt and receipt lines are created.
  • PO received quantities are updated.
  • If Inventory is enabled, stock is received into the selected location.
  • If the product tracks batches or serials, the required tracking data is stored.
  • Integration events are fired for Inventory and Accounting listeners.
