This
diagram depicts the Receiving process:
1. Receive Advance
Shipment Notice:
Receive
electronic Advance Shipment Notices (ASNs) from your suppliers. Receipts and payments can be generated
automatically from ASNs before you even receive the goods, or you can wait for
actual delivery before generating the receipt or payment.
2. Create Receipts:
Query
the purchase order you are receiving against or cascade the receipt across
multiple orders. Oracle Purchasing
minimizes your data entry by copying information from the purchase order lines
into the receipt. Simply enter receipt
header information and confirm the quantity for each shipment.
View Invoice Summary:
Designate
certain suppliers to be eligible for Payment on Receipt (also known as Evaluated
Receipt Settlement). For these suppliers, Oracle Purchasing generates a
supplier invoice automatically from the receipt. If you use Supplier Management
Portal, you can also check the status of invoices on the Web.
3. Inspect Goods:
Confirm
the quality of the goods you have received by entering simple inspection
results or use Oracle Quality to capture detailed inspection data.
4. Reject or Return
Goods:
Query
the purchase order or receipt for the item or items that you would like to
return. Enter the quantity and other
details to return any portion of goods that fails inspection.
5. Deliver Goods:
Deliver
the goods from the receiving area to their final destination.
