Central Warehouse - Receiving
The Receiving process allows you to receive items delivered from a vendor, transferred from a warehouse/other site, received from a price-contract/purchase-order, or ad-hoc (in which no order or transfer exists). You may also print and make corrections to a receiving record.
From the Home tab, select Receive Inventory. Receiving inventory is made easy through the Receiving wizard. Select the correct Receiving Type. Then, click Next. Receiving Types You may not see all receiving options listed below due to Site Setup and Site Permissions. Order that has been delivered by a vendor - Select to receive an order that was previously entered in the system. This is the most commonly used receiving type if the Order option was used. Complete receiving options depending on Receiving Type. Review and complete receiving details for each item. Use the scroll bar at the bottom of the screen to view all columns and the Calculated Totals for purchases, donations, sales tax, delivery fees, "other" costs, and storage fees. Verify that the quantities on the receive order, invoice, and actual product match. If amounts vary for any reason, select the item and enter the Quantity received. Calculated Purchased Total As quantities are changed, the Calculated Purchased Total (at the bottom of the window) is adjusted. Enter the Lot Number, Expiration Date, Delivery Fee/Case, Storage Fee/Case, Other Cost/Case (if applicable). Once the quantity for an item has been confirmed or corrected, click to place a checkmark in the Checked box. Checkbox Variations Depending on the type of receiving (warehouse, price contract, ad-hoc), you may or may not have checkboxes to confirm quantities and items. At the top of the screen, enter Purchased Total, Delivery Fee, Sales Tax, Storage Fee, and Donated Total (where applicable). The Purchased Total (at the top of the screen) must agree within pennies of the Calculated Purchase Total before the received order can be saved. Click Save Changes when you have completed all actions. Attached Images - Allows you to scan, add, edit, view, and remove images from a receiving record. e.g. Delivery Invoice, Backorder Invoice, etc. Delete Entire Receiving Record - Allows you to delete the entire Receiving Record (depending upon permissions). Bulk Changes - Allows you to make bulk changes to all items. Use the drop-down menu to select which bulk change in which you wish to apply changes. To clear a bulk change, select the correct option and click Ok. The default selection will clear the fields back to the original values. Lot Numbers - Enter the Lot Number to use for every item on the invoice. Delivery Fees - Enter the Delivery Fee per Case to use for every item on the invoice. Storage Fees - Enter the Storage Fee per Case to use for every item on the invoice. Other Costs - Enter the Other Cost per Case to use for every item on the invoice. Add Item from List - Allows you to add additional items from the list of available items. Add Item by Inventory Tag - Allows you to add an additional item by an inventory tag as long as an existing inventory tag does not exist. Add Item Ad-Hoc - Allows you to Search for and add an ad-hoc item from the list of available items. Edit Item - Allows you to create a New Inventory Tag for an item. For Existing Inventory Tags, you may only edit the quantity values, which can more easily be accomplished by editing quantities directly in the Receive Inventory screen. Remove Item - Allows you to remove a selected item from the Receiving invoice. (e.g. An item was not received due to low/no stock or was in poor condition for consumption.) Scan Barcodes - Allows you to scan single, box, case, pallet item barcodes as well as inventory tags when receiving inventory. Barcode scanners must first be installed and barcodes need to be established with the system prior to utilizing this feature. Contact your District staff for assistance. You may make edits/corrections to an existing record. In order to make changes, you must first open the correct operating day. Search for the receiving record. Then, select the correct invoice and click Edit Receiving Record to make any necessary edits following the same instructions in Step 5. It is best practice to enter comments for any and all changes made to the receiving record. The Print option in Receiving allows you to print Inventory Tag Labels for items received on an invoice and the Receiving Tracking Log. Additionally, you can reprint Receiving Details. Inventory Tag Labels Inventory Tag Labels are designed to be printed on Avery™6150 labels and placed on inventory in order to assist in tracking inventory. Receiving Tracking Log The Receiving Tracking Log allows you to review the full history of a receiving record. You may choose to view, print, or export the report. From the Print option, select Receiving Tracking Log. Receiving Details The Receiving Details report can be attached to invoices submitted to Central Office. The Receiving Details report should open immediately after saving changes to a receiving record; however you may choose to view, export, or print the report at any time. Receive Inventory
