Receiving

Purchase orders can be received on the Receiving page, or on the Purchase Orders page.

See how to receive from the Receiving page. Receiving from the Purchase Orders page is the same, except that not every purchase order on this page is ready to be received. See Purchase Orders page.

On the Purchase Orders > Receiving page:

Only purchase orders that are ready to be received are displayed on this page.
Blanket Orders are not displayed on this page. Blanket Order Releases are done from the Blanket Pro-Forma Orders page.

Receiving Rules

The following rules apply to the receipt of items on purchase orders:

You can receive all items on a purchase order at once, or receive individual line items.
The number of items received can be less than, equal to, or more than those ordered.
A line is closed when all or more items are received. Closed lines cannot be altered in ARM.
When the entire purchase order is received, the purchase order status changes to Closed, and can no longer be altered through ARM.
You can also receive items purchased through Kinetic.

ARM Receiving supports multiple releases defined within Kinetic. When more than one release has been defined, each release can be received separately through the Purchase Order Line page. The first unreceived release is always received first.
