To record the receipt of materials into Inventory, select the "Material Receipt" option. The following screen will appear:
If an Item is Lot/Serial Number controlled, you will be given the opportunity to assign a Lot/Serial Number to incoming material during the receiving process.
When entering a Material Receipt, you are presented with the following options:
Specify the date you want the transaction to be posted to the General Ledger. The current day's date will display by default.
Enter the Item Number of the material you are receiving into Inventory.
Inventory Unit of Measure.
Specify Site where material is being received.
Record the quantity of the Item being received. The Item's Quantity on Hand before and after the material receipt will also be displayed. Non-netable Quantity on Hand is not included in these values. If the material is issued directly to a Work Order, the before and after display will be bypassed.
Check to issue material immediately to a Work Order. Any Work Order Material Requirements having an issue method of either "Mixed" or "Push" may be issued to a Work Order using this option. Because "Pull" Items are issued to Work Orders using a material backflush, they may not be issued from this screen.
The full quantity being received will be issued to the Work Order if the "Immediate Issue" option is selected. This means the quantity issued may exceed or fall short of the Work Order Material Requirement quantity. In such cases, adjustments at the Work Order level may have to be made to bring the issued quantity into alignment with the required quantity. To avoid having to manage discrepancies, do not select this option. Instead, consider issuing materials manually.
Enter the Work Order Number of the Work Order you want to issue the received materials to. The lookup feature located to the right of the field leads to a searchable Work Orders list. The list will include Work Orders whose supplying Site matches the Site the materials are being received into.
