How To Process Inventory Receipts & Post To The Receiving Journal

  • Updated

When stock is received from an **OSTK** (Order for Stock) order, you need to count in and receive in the items. Then, you need to **close the receiving journal** to impact the inventory account.

  1. Click on Receive

    In the main navigation menu, click on the "**Inventory**" module, and select "**Receive**".

  2. Click on Receipts

    Find the order in question and, in the "**Actions**" column, click on "**Manage**" and "**Receipts**."

  3. Enter Received Quantity

    In the "**Rcvd-Qty**" field, enter the **quantity received** and click "**Save**".

  4. Click on Receiving Journal

    Within the "**Inventory**" module, select "**Receiving Journal**".

  5. Supplier Vouched

    Notice **red highlight** and **red font color** for the order in question. This indicates that vendor invoices have **not been processed**.

  6. Click on Enter Supplier Invoice

    Process the **vendor invoices** for the order in question.

  7. Click on Receiving Journal

    In the main navigation menu, click on the "**Inventory**" module and navigate back to **receiving journal**.

  8. Select the Order(s) to Close

    **Select the order(s) to close**. Notice in our example the order remains highlighted in red. This is due to a discrepancy between the **PO Qty** and the **quantity received**.

    Click on the "**Selected**" tab and click on the **green button** "**Complete/ Post to Rcv Jrnl**". Then click "**Finish**" on the next screen.
