Entering Receiving Transactions

Use the Receiving Transactions window to enter receiving transactions.

Attention: If Oracle Quality is installed and at least one qualified collection plan exists, both the Enter Quality Results option on the Tools menu and the Quality button on the button bar are enabled. Only collection plans that have been associated with the Receiving Transaction are qualified. Please note that when mandatory collection plans are used, quality results data must be entered and saved before you can save your receiving transaction line information. Data collection for Inspection Transaction collection plans have no bearing on whether the Enter Quality Results Tools menu option and the Quality button are enabled. See: Using Oracle Quality with Oracle Purchasing and Purchasing Versus Quality Inspections.

To enter receiving transaction line information:

  1. Purchasing opens the Receiving Transactions window and displays all receipts that meet your search criteria when you select the Find button in the Find Receiving Transactions window. See: Finding Receiving Transactions.

    In the lower part of the screen, Purchasing displays the following receipt information for the current line: Receipt Number, Order Number, the Supplier or internal organization shipping the item or the Customer returning the item, Parent Type, Description, Inspection, Destination, Current Location, Receiver Note, and Hazard Class.

  2. Select the line for which you want to enter a receiving transaction.

    If a material shortage exists for the item, a message appears. Displaying shortage messages for certain items is a setup option. From the message, you can view details of where in your organization the demand exists for the item. You can then make the item available with a high priority. See: Viewing Potential Shortages. See: Material Shortage Alerts and Shortage Notifications.

  3. Purchasing displays the Quantity due for the shipment. If you change the unit of measure, the receipt quantity is adjusted to reflect the new unit of measure.

  4. Enter the UOM of the transaction.

  5. Enter the Destination Type: Expense, Inventory, Receiving, or Shop Floor. This determines the final destination of the received items.

  6. Enter the Location for the transaction.

  7. Enter the Person performing the transaction.

  8. For Inventory transactions, enter the Subinventory.

  9. If the item is under locator control, enter the stock Locator.

  10. If you are a process manufacturing user and have implemented Oracle Process Manufacturing (OPM), then the Oracle Purchasing for Process Inventory functionality is enabled. If the selected receiving organization is a process organization, then the two process fields Secondary UOM and Secondary Quantity are enabled. For more information about these fields, see: Entering Receiving Lines.
