Introduction

Receiving goods in the store is a regular process carried out by the back-office staff. There are two ways in which goods are received in a store. In one case goods are received against a Purchase Order whereas goods can also be received without a formal Purchase Order.

The process below explains how to receive Purchase Ordered goods. This transaction is also called GRPO (Goods Receipt against a Purchase Order)

Go to Inventory Transactions > Purchase Order. This will open the Purchase Order list view.


Once you have created a Purchase Order, it will be listed in this list view.

A Purchase Order against which goods are yet to be received, either in totality or partially is marked as OPEN. Those Purchase Orders against which all the goods in the Purchase Order have been received are marked as CLOSED.



Against each Purchase Order there are 4 possible action buttons.
