Receive Purchases

When you enter a purchase order, the items are not really in your inventory.  To put them in your inventory, a Receive Purchase Order is needed.

LIST RECEIVE PURCHASE ORDERS

You can select which open purchase orders you wish to receive into inventory using the Receive Purchases Screen. When you select which open Purchase Order to receive, you see a screen similar to the purchase orders screen which will allow you to adjust quantities received. If the received quantity is different than the ordered quantity, the system will automatically split the purchase order for you.

Click the submit button to try to post the receiving.  You will see an error message.  Nebula Accounting forces you to enter a Vendor Invoice Number.  This process helps create a solid accounting trail for you to follow in the event that questions arise.
