Once purchased items are received by a warehouse, you can register the receipts. This enables you to determine whether the quantity of goods you have ordered matches the quantity that was actually received. The receipt registration is done per warehouse.
After selecting an order, you can register the receipt based on a order. A purchase order is generated automatically for this receipt. This order is given the Completed status because the order is generated the moment the receipt has been processed.
