Goods Receipts

 

 

 

 

1.  Adding Goods Receipts

Inventory>>Orders/Receipts>>Goods Receipts

 

Note: For audit purposes, normal practice is to link every GR to a corresponding PO. However, if Parameter 1360 is ticked, a PO number is not required when creating a GR.

 

1.

Click "Add new record" and enter header details.  Only suppliers ticked as "Inventory" in the Supplier reference file can be selected.

2.

Status defaults to "Draft" (see below).

3.

Select the corresponding PO number.  Only PO numbers related to the chosen supplier will be displayed.

Orders raised from within an R&M job show the job number in brackets and must be receipted from the originating job.  This helps to ensure R&M staff are aware of the delivery.  However, POs/GRs completed in R&M still display in the Inventory module.

4.

Enter additional data and click Update.

5.

The GR will open to display the parts on the corresponding PO. Amend quantities etc as necessary. Click Receive to complete the process.

6.

When any parts in the GR are received, status updates to "Active".

7.

If the received quantity is less than the order quantity, a back order is created.

8.

Change Status to "Closed" when no further parts are to be received on the PO/GR.  This hides the GR from the default view.

2.  GR Status

 

Draft

Status is Draft until at least one of the parts is receipted.

In Draft, the GR can be edited and additional parts added.

Active

Applied automatically when the "Receive" button is clicked.

When Active, no further parts can be added and the supplier and related PO number (if any) cannot be changed.

Closed

When the GR is complete and all parts have been received, change the status to Closed by clicking Edit and using the drop down Status menu.

4.  Deleting GRs

 

Generally, GRs should not be deleted. It can create a negative stock quantity.

When the status is changed to Closed they will be hidden from the normal view.

 

If a GR is deleted, available quantities are adjusted as if the parts were never received.

If those parts have been issued prior to deletion, it can result in a negative stock quantity.

 

Example:

Action

Result

1. Available Qty = 0

 

2. GR Receipt Qty = 1

Available Qty = 1

3. Issue Qty = 1

Available Qty = 0

4. Delete GR

Available Qty = -1

 

If this has occurred, enter an adjustment for the part in the Inventory>>Part details>>Stock Adjustment tab
