Receiving POs assigned to an OT tracking document

To receive purchase orders that were assigned to a tracking document in OT Transaction Entry, you must use the tracking number to access the purchase orders in Purchase Receipt of Inventory Entry.

The tracking document cannot be accessed by you or another operator in OT Transaction Entry-Details when you select it for receiving in PO Receipt of Inventory Entry.

Schedule your receiving process to occur when all inventory on a single vessel is unloaded. Specify addons in OT Transaction Entry before you perform the receiving process. Any addons associated with the tracking document are applied to the purchase orders and purchase order lines during receiving. If you do not receive the full quantity on a purchase order line, the remaining quantity is moved to a backorder. The addons are allocated to the received quantity only. Any backorders should then be assigned to a new tracking document in OT Transaction Entry.

  1. Select Overseas Trade > Entry > Transaction.
  2. Specify all addons associated with the containers.
  3. Select Purchase > Entry > Receipt of Inventory.
  4. In Advanced Search, specify the tracking document number in the Tracking # field, and then click Search.
  5. To review or change the lines on a purchase order, open the purchase order.
  6. Select Tracking > Receive Purchase Orders for Tracking #.
  7. Click Final Update.
  8. Specify printer information, and then click OK.
