PO Receiving

The Stores Inventory database can be directly updated from the Purchasing (PO) system when assets, previously defined as "Stocked" items, are recorded as being received in the Purchasing system. The Purchasing system updates the Stores Inventory database with the quantity, dollar amount, and warehouse location of the assets received. This is the process most commonly used to receive items into Stores Inventory and consists of several steps:

1. PEUPPE – Person Entity Definition
2. POUPPR – Purchase Request
3. POPO – Purchase Order Printing
4. POUPRC – PO Receiving. Used to receive products once they have been delivered.

Purchase Order for Stocked Items

Items ordered for the Warehouse on POs are added to the inventory at the time of receiving. Use the Purchase Requisition (POUPPR) page to place an order. The system also creates these requisitions automatically using the Calculate Reorder Points feature (SIINOP).

After entering the requisition, it must route for approvals (if enabled) before the Purchasing Department prints it and sends it to the vendor.
