PO Receiving (PO30.1)
Use PO Receiving (PO30.1) to enter receipt information for a purchase order. Before you can release a receiver, you must first inquire on the purchase order, then add the receiving information. The receiving information is updated when you release the receiver. If the item type is inventory, nonstock, or X (special order), the on order quantity is updated on the release. You can also use this form to inquire on a previously released receiver.
More Information
You can receive items based on the Lawson item, vendor item, or manufacturer number using the Display field on the header.
You can receive items to one location or to several locations simultaneously. To receive items only for the purchase order lines for a specific location, enter the location in the PO Ship To field. To receive items for any location on the purchase order, leave the PO Ship To field blank.
If all items are received at one location, you may enter that location in the Override Location field on the Receiver form tab. You may also override the receiving location on the line Detail form tab if it is different than the purchase order specified.
If you override the receiving location for an inventory type item, the item must be defined for the receiving location. When you receive inventory type items, stock on hand is updated at the receiving location and the on order quantity is updated at the ship to location.
The purchase order Line form tab allows entry of item quantities and units of measure. If the item type is inventory or nonstock, the item can be received in any valid unit of measure (UOM) that was defined for that item in IC11.1 (Item Master) or PO13.1 (Vendor Item), but if the item is an X (special order) type item, it must be received in the Buy UOM. The line Detail, Safety, and Catch weight detail tabs allow for entry of additional information pertaining to the line. If the item you are receiving is lot- or serial-tracked, you are transferred to PO39.1 (Receiving Detail) for entry of that information. You may also use the button displayed in the line Detail form tab to request that form for bin, lot or serial tracked items when necessary.
Substitute items may be received by first adding a receipt for the line (with zero quantity if necessary) and then using the S action code on the line. You are transferred to PO30.2 (Substitute Item) to enter the substitute item information.
The invoice cost and invoice form tabs allow for entry of cost and invoice information for Evaluated Receipts Settlement (ERS) purchase orders. These tabs will not be accessible for non-ERS purchase orders. The invoice cost cannot be updated if the Accounts Payable company does not allow cost update at receipt time.
If you enable overshipment budget edits in PO Company Setup (PO01.1), you can edit the budget for the shipment upon release of the receiver.
To edit the budget, go to Buyer Message--Receiving (PO52.1).
