Processing purchase and transfer receipts in TWL

In TWL, the system document number is prefixed with P, W, or O and is referred to as a receipt transaction (RT). All products are received by TWL as non-stock products because TWL does not validate items for Receiving-Only warehouses.

  1. In the system, print the purchase order or warehouse transfer to notify TWL to expect an inventory receipt.

    You can print a single receiving document if you print immediately after creating an order in Purchase Order Entry and Transfer Entry. You can also print multiple receiving documents using the batch function to notify TWL of the receipts to expect. Use Purchase Entry Processing Print POs Report and Transfer Entry Print Warehouse Transfer Report.

  2. Using the RF, process the receipts into the warehouse.
  3. In the system, generate WL Entry Batch Receiving Report.

    In the system, the purchase order remains in Stage 2 (Printed) until WL Entry Batch Receiving Report processes the active RCV communications and initiates the updating functions. When the updating functions are initiated, the purchase order stage is updated to Stage 5 (Received).

    WL Entry Batch Receiving Report launches the selected receiving functions to update the inventory records for one warehouse at a time.

    WL Entry Batch Receiving Report processes active RCV communications.
