Creating a receipt

Use this page to make a new receiving document in the web UI. You make the header first. You add the lines after the first save.

Before you start​

  • You need the right to create receipts. By default ADMIN, MANAGER and OPERATOR have it. See Who can do what.
  • The owner exists and is of type Own. See Administrator guide: Owners.
  • If you will fill Carrier or Supplier, those owners exist with the types Carrier and Supplier.

Steps​

  1. Open Inbound > Receipts.
  2. Click New. The receipt screen opens with a new receipt. Receipt Number is already filled (10 digits, for example 0000000021), Status is Open, Receipt Type is Normal. Owner is filled when the warehouse has a default owner.
  3. If Owner is empty, click the owner field and pick an owner.
  4. Fill the other fields you know on the tabs Header, Dates and Shipping.
  5. Click Save.

The lines list becomes active after the first save. Continue with Adding a line.
