Over-receipt through Warehouse Receipt

Hi all,

I have a requirement from a clothing company to allow over-receipts in NAV Warehouse Receipts. That's normal in the clothing industry because companies order big quantities in boxes, for example, 250,000 units per week so it's not a big deal to receive 250,100. The issue here is that the Purchase Order is 250,000 units and the customer would like to have the ability to receive more, in my example 250,100. What's the best solution to address this requirement, based on your experience?

In NAV you can't over-receive.

Thanks,

It depends on how the company wants to book that.

Are you talking about a situation when there is a PO is for 250,000 and officially you will keep the same PO (and consequently the same payables to the Vendor), and it will be also invoiced for 250,000 only by Vendor - but in the warehouse you will need to receive 100 extra?

If so, there are three general options:

1) Register 250,000 units at the real cost and 100 extra at no cost. Here you can add additional line to the PO with 100 extra quantity but at zero cost. Then, receive and invoice that.

2) Register 250,100 units at the total real cost (consequently, the registered cost per item will be little less than in the first case). In terms of legislation I see this as the least attractive option as it has risks, thus I would not recommend that one.

3) Register 250,000 units at the real cost and 100 extra also at the real cost. You can book your PO as it is, non modified; and you can book 100 extra items as e.g. surplus as a result of stock-taking. Like booking an item journal with a certain cost. Note that depending on your local legislation, this might lead to extra taxes (like VAT and profit tax), and is some cases (e.g., in case of imported items) it might be even illegal.
