When using the Purchase order receipt module, I would like the system to create a Record of Receipt, NOT an Invoice. I would like the system to create a record of receipt from receiving and AP will create the invoice when received from the vendor. The receiving department does not know pricing or invoice numbers and creating an invoice upon receipt causes many errors, unnecessary entries and more time spent trying to search and correct invoices.
It is imperative that we know when materials are received however it is counterproductive for receiving to perform an accounting function.

  • How about rebuild the PO receipt module to incorporate tracking numbers, carriers, eta, etc. for true shipment tracking?

  • Yes, yes, yes to a true PO Receipt module.

  • YES please make this a priority change. We do not want purchasing/receiving to be a part of the accounting function of AP. Additionally - if vendors invoice all receipts on one invoice, additional work is required to change/delete the receipts in order to enter the vendor invoice. Too many steps involved and makes this process extremely inefficient.
