Preexisting Receipt of Goods: If a receipt of goods is already in progress for an order and the Allow only one non transferred transaction for each order placed condition maestro* > General > Settings > Purchasing > Receipt of Goods is checked, a message will appear and the receipt of goods in progress will be displayed on the screen. If this configuration is not checked, a new receipt of goods will be created for this order.

Complete a Receipt of Goods in Progress

Enter the Receipt of Goods' Information

The order number, supplier name, requester, and buyer are displayed at the top of the window. This information comes from the stock order from catalogue. Click on the icon in the upper right corner of the screen to display the order's information.

2. Pick the date on which the receipt of goods is performed.

It is frequent for the receipt of goods to be performed a few days following the real delivery date. For example, an order is received on a Monday but its reception can only be performed on the Wednesday. It can therefore be useful to keep this information on record.

4. If needed, add a photo and/or document to the receipt of goods.
