Receiving a Shipment of Inventory
When you’ve received a purchase order and need to update your inventory to reflect this change you would click ‘Inventory Receiving’ on the Suppliers second tier menu. This brings up a list of the currently open purchase orders. You can filter this view via the drop down list in the upper left. Select a suppliers’ name from the drop down list to filter the list for that supplier.
To complete the purchase order and add the requested inventory to your current stock, click the blue ‘disk’ icon on the left side of the order listing. To edit the order if incomplete or items are on backorder, click the blue ‘pen’ icon. If the order has been cancelled, click the red ‘X’ icon.
While editing the order, to change the number of items you received or the price changed, you can change these from the edit screen. To sort the product list by any attribute click the heading of the column to sort the list.
If all was in order and you received the products you ordered, click the blue ‘disk’ icon on the left of each product in the list to complete the order request. If there was a backorder or you received more or less of a product than you had ordered, click the blue ‘pen’ icon from the left of the product in question. You’ll see a Quantity received textbox appear at the bottom of the list of products. Enter the number of product units that you’ve received and click the blue ‘disk’ icon to save the information. To return to the product list without changing the amount, click the grey ‘return’ button to the right of the textbox.
If you did not receive an item on the list click the red ‘X’ next to the product in the list to remove that product from the order. The page will post back with the specified product removed from the list and the order recalculated accordingly.
