Hello,
Our receipt process is like this:
1. Warehouse brings packing slips to our department.
2. Our department keys these into NAV in the "Qty to Receive" column of a Purchase Order, using the Vendor Shipment Number field to key in the packing slip number, but we DO NOT POST a receipt or invoice.
3. Another department cross references the warehouse's scan with our the numbers we keyed into Qty. to Receive.
4. Once quantities have been verified another department posts a receipt from the Purchase Order, using the numbers we keyed in Step 2.
This creates an issue on days when we receive 2 packing slips for the same Purchase Order - we do not want to combine them into one receipt, and yet we need to key both of them into the Purchase Order with separate vendor shipment numbers. However, until one has been posted, we cannot override the data keyed in. This is the only way we have found to key in numbers and double check them prior to posting the Receipt.
I understand we could simply post the receipt and then if the quantities are off, reverse the receipt and post a new one, but this seems like more trouble than it's worth.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a more efficient way for our department to key in these numbers for each packing slip we receive, allow another department to verify these numbers, and THEN post a document?
Thank you.
