Correcting receipts posted against the wrong PO after the inventory has been consumed

Posted on by 70

What is the most streamline method for correcting a situation where a user entered receipts and posted them against the wrong PO.  The one caveat making this situation difficult is that the inventory has already been consumed, so when you go into the returns window and select the PO you want to process the return against, the receipts are not available.

No invoices have been processed for the receipts yet.  Also, this PO is a large PO that has many receipts against it, so closing the PO and keying in a new one is not really an option.  One would think a simple routine could be created to basically re-allocate a receipt from one purchase order to another.  I imagine the act of keying in a receipt against the wrong PO is fairly common.

    Benjamin - Thanks for the response.  I was able to get the issue resolved.

    Hello RH,

    Unforunately we would not support a script to re-allocate a receipt from one purchase order to another.

    You could attempt to do an inventory return itself, or sales return to bring the items back into the system but that would run into other issues (such as drillback functionality). I believe the only real option we can suggest (assuming you still want full connectivity between the PO, receipts and all) would be the full removal and re-entry as the inventory has been used.

    For full functionality, the only real option open would be to re-enter everything at this point.
