Receiving Inventory from a Purchase Order
When you begin to receive inventory from the purchase order, you will enter the
quantity received for each item on the Receive screen. Inventory for an item can
be marked as received on the PC's Receive screen or on the mobile devices.
The Receive
screen allows you
to enter quantities
received by
location, and can
optionally show you
costing information
as well. Receiving
inventory on the
Receive screen
adds inventory to
that item.
This screen
provides a good
example of one of
the time-saving features in InventoryControl. If you are receiving an
item on which you have designated a primary location, the Receive
screen automatically displays that location when you m ark that item as received.
You can change the location, if needed, but if you usually receive the item into
this location, the ability to designate it as primary will save you from having to
search for and select it each time you receive this item. For more information
about Primary Locations,pleaserefertoChapter 2: Getting Started in this
manual.
Enter the quantity and
select the location into
which the item was
received.
