    • For non-stocked parts, this option will handle the bundling of the receipt post and the work order line issue.
    • A pre/post validation checks for negative receipt quantities (i.e. returns) and stops the post from proceeding if any of those returns will cause a negative inventory balance. It also ensure that the part is not on an open count if the business parameter for stopping issuing and receiving during a count has been set to Y.
    • The general rule for PO receipts when the current inventory value is negative is to force the average cost to be the cost on the receipt. For PO returns, the average cost is not changed; a cost of sales adjustment is created for any difference.
    • Inventory in-stock levels are increased with the received goods.
    • Inventory on-order levels are decreased by the number of received goods.
    • If all goods ordered have been received, the order status is set to Closed.
    • If only some of the goods ordered have been received, the order status is set to Goods Received.
    • For a release authorization, the standing order detail will be updated or closed, as appropriate.
    • The General AP Receiving business parameter determines if any GL transactions are created. The GL transactions created are:
      • DR Inventory (for the quantity * cost of receipt + PST, if applicable)
      • CR PST (if applicable)
      • CR Accrued Liability
    • If the business parameter is set to Yes, a PO Receiver Edit Listing will be printed.
