Goods receipt types

  • Advised receipts (planned GR). These receipts are announced by means of purchase orders and delivery notes (payment advices) and offset against the actual quantities for reconciliation.

  • Other receipts (unplanned GR). These receipts are not notified

Notifications can either be transmitted by the host or entered manually by the user. The notification data relates to articles and quantities that are to be delivered and put away in the future. A large number of stock qualifications can be entered.

Planned goods receipt - work steps:

  1. Goods in order (optional): Transmission of an order to suppliers to order goods.

  2. Delivery note: Notification of a planned delivery of goods.

  3. Goods receipt: Comparison and booking of the goods actually delivered in relation to the previous delivery note.

  4. Receipt: Transfer of the goods to the warehouse. Planned by means of system-side support through transport orders to the target storage location or unplanned via selection of the storage location by the user.


Goods receipt screen

As soon as the advised delivery has arrived, a goods receipt is generated on the basis of the delivery note. It is generally possible that the incoming delivery deviates from the notification in terms of article scope and/or quantity. Over- and under-deliveries are therefore possible. Deviations from the payment advice note can be corrected by adding, deleting or editing the goods receipt items.

Any number of goods receipt lists can be entered for a delivery note, relationship 1:n. All items on the delivery note are always transferred to the goods receipt. If, for example, the delivery note is received in parallel at different goods receipt locations, the items/quantities that are irrelevant for the employee can be removed from the goods receipt note. Once the goods receipt has been completed, the received quantities flow back into the delivery note where they are compared with the target quantity.
