Creating Receive Goods Notification (GRN)
Menu > Help Desk > Receive Goods
Once the order is confirmed, Purchase Order is sent by the customer to the vendor. A Delivery Note is issued by the vendor along with the dispatch of the required merchandise. The customer creates a GRN for the goods received to add them to the system.
Users can filter Purchase Orders based on Created Date, PO Status. The PO statuses can be explained as:
Pending: POs against which no GRN has been generated
Partially Received: POs for which goods have been received partially.
Received: The whole items/assets have been received against the PO generated.
Force Close: When PO was generated but transaction was canceled, the PO Is closed without GRN
Force Close (partial received): Partial GRN was released and pending PO was suspended
Select a Purchase Order from the grid and click on the Create Receive Goods button. A form will open:
