Use this function to create, view, edit or delete receipts.
Receipts can be direct receipts (see the PTHDIR - Direct receipt parameter), or receipts linked to one of the following elements:

  • An orders
  • An open order
  • An order shipment
  • A container shipment
  • An order prereceipt
  • A sales delivery in the event of an intersite or intercompany receipt.

Receipts can be accessed using the Purchasing or Stock menus.

For a given site and supplier, use this function to perform the receipt in full or in part of a group of orders for a number of received products and/or received quantities.

If the products are managed in stock, you can enter all the information related to stock management. If the products are managed by location, you can only enter part of the information by performing an administrative receipt of the 'dock' type. The remaining information about stock can be included using the Storage plan when putting it away in the reserve stock.

In any event, creating a receipt triggers a stock receipt for stock-managed products, and an update of the quantity and value totals.

This function is directly linked with the Non-conformance management functionality. If the receipt of products warrants notification to your Quality management team of a potential non-conformity you can raise a non-conformance incidence directly from this function. For example, if a component received from a supplier does not comply with specifications or the received product is defective.

Timely notification of a non-conformity can be critical for compliance management.

SEEREFERTTO A Receipt function is also available in VT mode. This function, which can be accessed from an RFT (Radio Frequency Terminal), is used to create supplier receipts, generate slips and launch the printing of labels automatically.

Screen management

This function is customized to the needs of your organization and your processes. The transaction you select determines the way in which you enter information, and information is displayed and printed.

If only one transaction has been set up you are not offered a choice, the default entry screen is displayed. The Receipt function contains a header section and three specific sections.

Header

Use the header information as a first level of selection criteria.
Depending on the context, use this information to restrict the picking lists related to supplier orders, intersite or intercompany deliveries, prereceipts and shipments.

Entry screen

Receipt lines

The receipt lines can come from an order, and shipment request or an inter-site / inter-company shipment and:

Be automatically initialized from the order lines selected in the picking window.

Be automatically initialized from the delivery lines selected in the picking window.

Be entered manually. In this case, it will be necessary to manually specify the order number and the line number concerned.

Receipt lines can be direct. In this case, you need to manually enter the required information.

You cannot add an additional line or modify the lines that affect the distribution of the invoicing elements in the following situations:

  • one of the receipt lines is partially invoiced (directly or through an order invoice),
  • one of the lines is linked to an additional invoice.

You cannot directly delete a receipt line linked to a product in stock count process. You need to use the Receipt modifications action to delete the line.

Submitted to quality control

This information cannot be accessed. It specifies if the status of the product can be in another status other than the status to be controlled. The management of the quality control can take the place of the management rule associated with the movement type Supplier receipt defined for the product category.

This information can take three values:


No control: in this case, the authorized statuses and the default status value depend on the stock management rule associated with the ‘Supplier receipt’ movement type.


Non-changeable control: in this case, the only authorized statuses are the statuses belonging to the group of statuses to be controlled. The management rule will only be used if it defines the sub-statuses of the status group to be controlled and the default status will be used if it corresponds to a status to be controlled. In the opposite case it is the Q status that will be proposed by default.

Changeable control: in this case, all the statuses authorized by the stock management rule associated with the ‘Supplier receipt’ movement type can be chosen. On the other hand, the value proposed by default will be the status to be controlled. If the default status of the management rule does not correspond to a status to be controlled, it is the Q status that will be proposed by default.

An analysis request will only be generated in the management rule defines the generation of analysis requests during the receipt of products with the status Q*.

This information is initialized in the following manner:

If a Product-supplier record exists for the product to be received, then this information is initialized with the value entered in this record.

If there is no Product-supplier record for the product to receive, use the value defined for the product in the Management section in the product record (Quality block).

Special feature concerning receipts arising from an order: At the order line level, you can modify the control submission rule if the Product-supplier or Product rule is different from ‘Non modifiable control’. In this case, use the value entered on the order line.

Stock data

Depending on the product setup, you need to enter the stock characteristics: These characteristics are the following:

The Status. This is the quality status of the product.

The location type and the location if the product is managed by locations.

The internal lot.

The number of Sub-lots and the Sub-lot number. The final sub-lot is calculated if several sub-lots are specified and if they are consecutive (this information cannot be modified).

The supplier lot.

The serial number if the product is subject to a serial number. The final serial number if several serial numbers are involved in the receipt and if they are consecutive (this information cannot be modifiable).

The order price. This is the stock value associated with the receipt movement.

The transaction description. It is a description that will be entered in the stock journal.

At the end of the receipt line, a window for the entry of the stock detail may open automatically if all the stock information has not been entered or initialized. This information must then be entered in this detail screen.

In addition to the stock characteristics specific to the product, a certain number of rules affect stock receipts. For a supplier receipt these rules can be describes in a general manner, see the Stock management rules, for the Supplier receipt. These rules can also be refined by the Product categories or by the product categories defined for the sites. A rule for the receipt of stock can also, if necessary, be defined by the Product categories for a movement type (see the definition of the movement code in the setup of the Receipts).

Different cases will be considered as function of whether it is a direct receipt or an order receipt or a receipt with an origin of an inter-site or inter-company shipment line.

Direct receipt or receipt coming from an order:

In the case of a direct receipt or receipt coming from an order, certain information will be automatically initialized whist other information must be manually entered.

The location type and the location: if the product is managed by location, a default location will be initialized according to the management rule assigned to the movement type Supplier receipt, and to the locations set up in the Product/site record. The semantic identifying a location category is used to associate in the Product/site record a location type and a potential location. The location type and the location defined in the Product-site record can refer to a group of location types and/or locations if the wild cards (?,*) are used in their definition (see the Location types and Product-site documentations). In the case of some location types, the assignment will also depend on their availability or their capacity (replenishment management). This information can potentially be modified if necessary.

When a warehouse is specified, only a location associated with the entered warehouse can be specified.

If the receipt transaction allows it, a location of the type dock can be entered in the receipt header. If this is the case, it will be this location that will be systematically suggested by default. The locations of the type dock are not suggested in the selection if the return transaction does not specify receipts to dock.

In certain cases, you may intentionally choose to not enter the location type and/or location because the goods to be booked-in will be distributed across different stock locations. The user will then enter the distribution in the Stock detail window. If a $ symbol appears in these fields at the end of entry, it means that different location types and/or locations have been assigned and that a sub-detail exists for the stock lines.

From the Location type field, you can use the action icon to:

Select a location type.

Jump to the location types table if your user's authorizations allow it.

From the Location field, you can use the action icon to:

Select a location.

Access by tunnel the location table if the user's authorizations allow it.

Tunnel to the Location occupation inquiry if the user's authorizations allow it.

Access by tunnel the Dedicated locations inquiry for the product being entered if the user's authorizations allow it.

The Lot: If the product is managed by lot, different cases are possible depending on the lot management rule associated with the Supplier receipt movement type and depending on the lot management rule of the product.

If a product is not managed by lot, the Lot and Supplier Lot columns cannot be accessed.

If a product is managed with mandatory or optional lots, the access to the lot field depends on one hand to the setup of the receipt transaction used and on the other to the management rule Supplier receipt defined in the category of the product or in the stock management rules.

Indeed, it is possible to specify at this level that the lot will not be entered, that its entry is free or that the lot can be entered on the condition that it is a new lot.

In addition, it will be possible to allocate a default value to a lot. In this case, several choices are also offered. Never initialize the lot or initialize the lot with a document number (initialization with the document number is not visible during the entry if the receipt number is automatically allocated at the creation, it is given a blank value). If the lot number is not entered in the lot field, the document number will be written in the lot field at the posting of the receipt. It is also possible to choose to initialize the internal lot with the supplier lot previously entered.

When the entry is completed, if no lot number has been entered, several cases can arise: Either the management rule for the transaction assigns the document number, or the system will use the lot sequence number of the product to assign a new lot number. If no lot sequence number has been specified for the product and the lot is mandatory, the user will receive a blocking message.

A specific case exists for products managed as optional lot: This product type allows the entry of a blank lot field. In this case, it is necessary to enter the lot field by calling the function accessible by right click in this Blank lot context. Then, when saving the document, the sequence numbers or the document number will not be used. This management method is thus incompatible with a management rule that does not allow the entry of an internal lot number.

The grid shown below, summarizes the impact of the setup of the management rule for the movement type Supplier receipt in the management of the mandatory lot during the entry of a direct receipt or one coming from an order line. In the case of optional lots, there is a supplementary function available by right click on the lot field allowing the user to leave the lot number blank.

Using the right click on this field, it is possible to:

Select a lot number from the list of lots declared for the site. If the product is managed by lot and sub-lot, the sub-lots will also appear in the selection window. The choice of a lot and sub-lot will be used to load the lot and sub-lot fields.

Identify the manner in which the lot will be calculated, when it is not assigned, using the Lot info function (Blank lot, Lot sequence number or the document number).

Additionally it is possible to enter on the same receipt line several different lots. For this it is necessary to detail the line in the Enter quantity detail window. This window opens automatically if stock information is missing from the line entry. When this is not the case, it is necessary to open using the right button on the receipt line. If a receipt line is distributed over several different lots, the corresponding field in the document line is loaded with the $ character.

The serial numbers: If the product is managed with serial numbers upon receipt/issue, it is mandatory to enter, before saving the receipt, one or more serial numbers depending on the quantity that has been received (this entry is only mandatory in the stock detail window). A control will be carried out to check that the number entered is not already in stock (a serial number being considered as unitary and not divisible).

When several serial numbers are in a receipt, the final number will contain the last number in the series. On the condition that the numbers are consecutive. If not a $ will be displayed in the two fields to specify that the numbers in the receipt are not consecutive. It will be necessary to use the stock detail window to view all the serial numbers.

From this field there is the possibility using the right click to select the serial numbers known to the system and which are no longer in stock (this function is also available for the serial numbers managed only on issue).

Receipt arising from an inter-site delivery:

In the case of a receipt arising from an inter-site delivery, the most of the information will be automatically initialized from the stock information from the line of the original document, other information must be entered manually or will be initialized as a function of the setup associated with the receipt movement type Supplier receipt.

The location type and the location: the functioning is identical to that of direct receipts or receipts from an order.

The internal lot: This information cannot be accessed in the receipt line in this context. If the receipt involves a shipment that only references a single lot number, this will be displayed on the line. If the original document references several lot numbers, this will be indicated by the presence of the $ symbol in the lot field. If the shipment is multi-lots and that the receipt only concerns part of the shipment, the choice of the lot will be made via the stock detail screen (by deleting the lines that are not required). Same remarks as those concerning the management of sub-lot numbers.

The serial number: This information cannot be accessed in the receipt line in this context. If the serial numbers of the shipment line are consecutive they are displayed on the receipt line. Otherwise, the $ sign will be displayed in the two fields to indicate that the numbers in the receipt are not consecutive. If the document of origin contains several serial numbers and the receipt only concerns some of these numbers, it will be necessary to access the stock detail window to choose the required numbers. Only the serial number from the original delivery line can be chosen. The serial number selection window will only submit the serial numbers from the original document line.

Note concerning the entry cycle for the creation of a receipt:

At the time of creating a receipt line by selecting a shipment line and that several stock detail lines are generated, the stock information cannot be modified except via the use of the Stock detail. Same remark for the modification of a line for a direct receipt or a receipt arising from an order (provided the receipt has not been created). Only the following information remains accessible: Unit, Quantity, Coefficient, Unit price in the order and Movement description.

When a single stock detail line exists, the information remains modifiable on the receipt line for a direct receipt or a receipt coming from an order. For a reception having as its origin a shipment, only the information concerning the Status, the Location type, the Location, the unit price of the order and the Movement description will be modifiable.

If the quantity is modified on the receipt line and several lines exist in the stock detail, then the detail window will open automatically to allow the choice of the line(s) impacted by this modification.

If the quantity on the receipt line is increased and only one stock detail line exists, then the detail window will automatically open to make it possible to specify that the additional quantity concerns the same detail line or another detail line.

If the quantity is decreased in the receipt line and there is only one detail line, the stock window will not open.

When you are creating a subcontract receipt line with or without WO, and the received quantity is less than the ordered quantity for the released and received product, or for the consumed materials related to the subcontracted product, you must manually identify the consumed material lines. Click Subcon. order issues from the Actions icon to display the stock lines. Next, click the Actions icon at receipt line level, then select Enter detailed quantities to specify the quantity actually consumed.
Once the receipt has been saved, the stock information and the received quantity cannot be modified for a received and released product or for the materials consumed for the subcontracted product. If you want to modify this information or the quantity, you must delete the receipt and recreate it.

Note concerning the management of the coefficients and the receipt units:

When the receipt has as its origin a shipment, the units used to carry out the stock movement will be by default those of the shipment. Thus if a delivery had as sales unit a Carton, but the associated stock movement in made by individual unit, the unit used by default to carry out the receipt to stock will be the unit. The receipt line unit itself will be the same as the shipment line unit (on the condition that this unit is defined for purchases).

It is possible to modify the conversion factor between the receipt unit and the stock unit. If this modification has taken place not on the receipt line, but in the stock detail window, the modification of the coefficient will be copied to the receipt line. Except if in the stock detail window other units are used or if the lines with different coefficients are entered and that the quantity entered does not correspond to the quantity on the receipt line. In this case the receipt line unit will be replaced by the stock unit to ensure a conversion with the units used to carry out the receipt to stock.

Note concerning the receipt of shipments will shortages:

It will not be possible to carry out a receipt for a shipment lines only missing products. It will be necessary to have previously entered the stock information in the original delivery. A message will be displayed to highlight the problem.

If the receipt concerns a shipment line concerning the shortages and the identified stock lines, only the quantities corresponding to the identified stock lines will be proposed on the receipt lines. It will then not be possible to modify the receipt quantity above the quantities identified during the original issue. If the receipt concerns a shipment with packaging that cannot be decimalized, the unit proposed will then be the stock unit.


Close

This information is only accessible when the receipt line concerns an order line or a shipment request and when the POHCLE setup authorizes it. This information is used to close the balance to be received on the order line concerned.

If the receipt comes from a shipment request and only part of the request is being booked in, this will automatically be split and the new request generated will/will not be closed as a function of the closed balance value entered on the receipt line.

Discounts and charges

The different discount and charge fields that appear at the level of each receipt line are determined via the structure code associated with the supplier in their record. The values contained in these fields come from the price list search and can be modified if the associated reason allows it (or if the reason value given to the UPDPRIPUR setup allows it).

The Actions icon is used to view all the reasons associated with the price and discounts and to modify, if necessary, the reasons assigned to each of the columns.

Unit price of the order

This is the unitary amount by stock unit that can be used to value the stock (if the valuation method for a supplier receipt is Order price). The valuation method for the stock is defined by product category or by product category as a function of the storage site.

It can also be set up by transaction type. This information can be manually modified if required, if the transaction authorizes it. This information can also be viewed in the stock detail window.

The order price is initialized as follows:

If the receipt line is not related to an inter-site delivery (inter-company deliveries are calculated in this manner) then the order price is equal to the net price of the delivery line converted into the currency of the company by using as exchange rate date the date defined in the PTHCURDAT parameter and as exchange rate type the exchange rate type specified in the receipt header.

If the receipt line originates from an inter-site delivery line, the order price defaults from the stock issue price of the original delivery.

Movement group

This is statistical information that will be picked up by the stock movements associated with the receipt line. This information is controlled by miscellaneous table number 9 and can be initialized by the receipt transaction used.

Use the Actions icon to:

Select a movement group from the list.

Access the movement group table according to the user's authorizations.

Account

The presence of this information depends on the transaction setup.

This is the account that will be transferred to the purchase invoice control. This account is loaded by default as a function of the account present in the order line that is the source of the receipt line or for the account determined by the automatic journal PORD in the case of a direct supplier receipt or when it is linked to an inter-site or inter-company shipment.

Tab Valuation

The display of this section and the entry of information are subject to an entry transaction.

Tab Costs

This section is available based on the selected entry transaction.
It displays a summary of the costs related to the document, both in the document currency and company currency.
The displayed information is the result of a calculation: the information is only displayed after the document has been created. If an existing document is modified, the data is updated, but only after the modification has been saved.

  • For the document, the Purchase cost block displays:
    - the total of the tax excl. lines,
    - the total of the various cost types involved in the purchase cost calculation
    - The total of additional invoices (and credit memos on additional invoices) impacting the document in progress, either directly or indirectly. These are the additional invoices that meet the two following conditions: they are validated and included in the actual purchase cost (New cost flag activated).
    Reminder: additional invoice amounts, where the New cost flag is set to No, have an impact on the Adjusted tax excl amount of the SCD - Document line detail screen, which can be accessed on the receipt line and in the Product cost total field.
    - the total of the invoicing elements increasing or decreasing the total amounts.
    - the Purchase cost total (total of the previous lines),

    Recall:
    - The direct cost total is loaded only if the current document refers to at least one product for which landed costs are managed with a cost structure. The distribution by cost nature is available in the window displayed by the option in the Distribution of costs block.
    - The landed cost total is only loaded if the current document is linked to at least one product for which landed costs are managed with a landed cost coefficient and/or a fixed cost per unit.
    - When the order is of the inter-site type, the purchase cost calculation does not include the line amounts, nor deductible taxes or invoicing elements.

  • The Distribution of costs block includes a zoom option used to view the list of the direct costs by cost nature in document currency and company currency.

    The list of the costs grouped by cost nature, or detailed by cost, can also be viewed in report PURFCS - Purchase costs, available from function Reports or from menu File/Print of the current function and from the same menu in function Costs.

Reports

By default, the following reports are associated with this function :

  BONRCP : Receipt notes

  PURFCS : Purchase costs

  PRECEIPTE : Purchase receipt list

  PRECEIPTL : Detail purchase receipt list

This can be changed using a different setup.


This setup is performed at the Customization level of the current object, by associating a report code or a print code to it.
It is possible to further specify this setup:

  • By specifying a given report at transaction entry level. If this report matches a print code, the list of reports associated with this print code is also submitted.
    The report entered at transaction entry level and the reports associated with the print code are automatically submitted in creation mode only.
  • At a more detailed level, by associating a print template with the BP. This template mentions the report to be used in priority for the printing of each document, as well as the expected number of copies.
    SEEINFOIf the number of copies is not specified, or if there is no print template associated with the BP, the number of copies defined for the Destination printer is chosen. If the number of copies is not specified for the destination printer, then a single copy is printed by default.
