PO receiving

PO receiving is the process in which users enter PO parcels and stage them for delivery. This process can either be performed on the browser or on the handheld.

POs that are eligible for receiving on the handheld include

  • Open, with PO Lines with remaining quantities > 0

  • PO Lines with Inventory (I), Non-stock (N), or Special (X) items

POs that are ineligible for receiving on the handheld include:

  • Unreleased

  • Closed

  • Cancelled

  • Drop Ship where PO20 header record set to 2 = Receiving Not Allowed

Note: 

If a catch weight is required, the receipt will only be added to PO30 for further processing.
