Serial numbers |
Select this to use the Inventory Serial Entry for Inspection program to capture the serial numbers counted. Manual serial numbers or batch serial numbers are captured, depending on the method of serial tracking defined against the stock item (Stock Codes). This option is only enabled if Serial tracking is required for the stock item and the option: Record serial numbers during receipt is enabled (Stock Codes). |
Count complete |
Select this to indicate that the count is complete (i.e. you do not intend to count any further quantities for the item). Note that setting the count to complete does not prevent you from processing additional counts for the item, as over-receipting for jobs / purchase orders is allowed. This option is automatically selected if the quantity you enter in the Quantity counted field is equal to or more than the quantity in the Advised quantity. You can set the count to complete without having to enter a quantity. You can set the count to complete when the quantity is zero providing a quantity was previously counted. This option is automatically selected if the value in the Counted field equals or is greater than the value in the Advised field. The Count complete option can also be set when processing the receipt into inspection (see Receipt Into Inspection) |
You use the Inspect option to indicate the quantity of the item inspected.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Quantity inspected | Enter the quantity of the item inspected. |
Document | This indicates the reference number for the inspection document. |
Inspection complete |
Select this to indicate that the inspection is complete (i.e. you do not intend to inspect any further quantities for the item). You can set the inspection to complete without having to enter a quantity. |
You use the Scrap option to enter the quantity of the item which has been scrapped, together with a reason for the scrapping.
You typically scrap an item that is beyond economical repair or an item that is being used for testing.
You can select to still pay the supplier for the item(s) you scrap when the option Liable to supplier for scrapped items is enabled (Purchase Orders Setup). |
Scrapping items does not have an effect on stock levels or costing. Scrapping merely removes the quantity from the Qty in inspection field.
The GRN only contains the stock value once the item is receipted into stock. While an item is in inspection, there is no GRN for that item, only an inspection GRN. Therefore, scrapping items at this stage has no effect on the GRN at all, unless you select the option to be liable to the supplier for scrapped items, in which case a General Ledger entry is created.
Field | Description | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Quantity scrapped | Enter the quantity of the item scrapped.
|
||||
Document | This indicates the reference number for the scrap document. | ||||
Reject code |

Narration | Enter a narration, if required. This text can be
printed on inspection documents. This text is written to the InvInspectDet.Narration field and can be used for reporting purposes. If you add the DetNarration field to your inspection document (Maintain SRS Document Templates) then the narration is printed on your document. This defaults to the description for the Reject code you selected. |
||||
Default warehouse to use | Enter the warehouse code to use for creating and
printing the inventory journal for the receipt of the
non-stocked item. This only applies when you process a receipt for a non-stocked item and you do not have a default warehouse defined against your operator code (Operators - Defaults) or against the company (Company Maintenance). |
||||
Serial numbers |
Select this to use the Inventory Serial Entry for Inspection program to capture the serial numbers to scrap. Manual serial numbers or batch serial numbers are captured, depending on the method of serial tracking defined against the stock item (Stock Codes).

Unit cost |
This indicates the unit cost assigned to the stock item (Inventory Warehouse Maintenance for Stock Code). It can also indicate the total cost, depending on the cost basis selected. If you select the Cost basis as Total cost, then you can enter the total receipt cost in this field. See Field considerations in Notes and warnings. |
||||
Cost uom | This indicates the unit of measure applicable to the receipt cost. | ||||
GRN source |
This is displayed if the GRN suspense system is installed and the item is neither traceable nor requires inspection. The code can be in the range 1 to 5, indicating the source of the transaction. For example: A code of 1 can indicate returns. Totals for each code are printed on the GRN Audit Trail report. You must identify the required coding structure. The default source code is 1. |
You use the Reject option to indicate the quantity of the item rejected.
A rejected item is typically one that could be still repaired. It could be returned to the supplier for repair or sent to an internal department for repair. Another reason for rejecting items could be that the supplier delivered the items too early or too late.
Rejected items returned to a supplier are marked as off site. You use the Goods in Inspection Offsite program to list these items.
When the (now repaired) rejected items are returned from the supplier, you use the Return function to process them.
Rejecting an item does not remove it from inspection. The only activities which remove an item from inspection (other than processing a Reverse Receipt transaction) are Accept and Scrap.
To reverse "rejected" items, you must first "return" the quantity into inspection and then "scrap" the items to set the quantity in inspection to zero. The Reverse Receipt function (Purchase Order Receipts) takes the quantity out of inspection back into the purchase order as if you did not receipt it in the first place.
No lines are created against the GRN for rejected items when the GRN system is required (Purchase Orders Setup).
When you post the transaction, the off-site quantity is updated with the quantity rejected.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Quantity rejected | Enter the quantity of the item rejected. |

Manual serial numbers or batch serial numbers are captured, depending on the method of serial tracking defined against the stock item (Stock Codes). This is only enabled if Serial tracking is required for the stock item and the option: Record serial numbers during receipt is selected (Stock Codes). |
Print return note document |
Select this option if you want to print an on-line return note document using the Inventory Document Print program. See also: Notes and warnings. This is disabled if you selected to print Inspection documents in Batch mode only (Inventory Setup). In this case, you use the Inspection Document Print program to print the inspection documents. |
You use the Return option to enter the quantity of the item which has been returned from the supplier and needs to be inspected and accepted into stock.
Typically, these items would have been rejected and are now being returned to you for re-inspection and acceptance.
Field | Description | ||||

Inspected |
This indicates the quantity of the item that has been inspected. This is zero when the item is first received into inspection. The value displayed here is purely documentary and does not affect the processing of a two-stage receipt. This field can be changed using the Inspect option. It is also updated when you use the Reverse Receipt option to reverse all or part of the quantity received (Reverse Previous Receipt into Inspection). |
Inspection complete | This indicates whether the inspection is
complete. The calculation for determining when an item is no longer in inspection is: Advised - (Accepted + scrapped + (rejected - offsite)). |
Scrapped |
This indicates the quantity of the item that has been scrapped. This is zero when the item is first received into inspection. This is changed using the Scrap option. |
Rejected |
This indicates the quantity of the item that has been rejected. This is zero when the item is first received into inspection. This is changed using the Reject option. Rejected items returned to a supplier are marked as off site. You can use the Goods in Inspection Offsite program to list these items. |
Quantity off-site |
This indicates the total quantity of the item which is not longer on your site (e.g. returned to the supplier). This is zero when the item is first received into inspection. |
This displays the inspection transactions processed to date for the selected GRN.
Column | Description |

Transaction |
The following transactions are created when receipting an item into inspection or when processing inspection transactions:
|
Quantity | This indicates the transaction quantity. |
Document | This indicates the document number created for the transaction. |
Concession |
This indicates the concession reference associated with the specific Lot, if applicable. This field is only relevant if the item is defined as Traceable (Stock Codes). A concession usually indicates that although the item deviates from the original specification, it is still acceptable to, and fit for, its purpose. |
Explanation of GRN inspection transactions and Quantity in Inspection:
Summary of GRN transactions for this example:
1 item scrapped. Reduce the Qty in inspection by 1. No changes to GRN files.
Only accepting, scrapping and reversing the receipt effects the Qty In Inspection value.
This screen is displayed when you select the Accept Into Stock option. It is used to receipt the goods which have been inspected into stock.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Post | Select this to process the receipt according to the
information you entered. Any linked sales orders or jobs are updated and the ledger codes entered against the purchase order line are used for distribution. The following applies when the purchase order is linked to a sales order:
The average cost of the stock item is not recalculated when you process a negative receipt if your Costing method is set to Average and you enabled the option: Do not calculate average cost (Inventory Setup). In this case, the variance between the current average cost and the cost entered is posted to the Warehouse variance account defined against the warehouse to which the stock item belongs (see Warehouses). Refer to Processing for processing details when using Actual Costing. A warning is displayed if the entered receipt quantity exceeds the order quantity by the percentage defined against the Acceptable quantity over/under supply option (Purchase Orders Setup). The percentage variance is calculated as follows: ((Inspection qty advised - (Inspection qty accepted + qty being accepted)) / Inspection qty advised) x 100 Where this result is less than zero, the password defined for the over supply of a purchase order is requested and where this result is greater than zero, the password defined for the under supply of a purchase order is requested.See Password considerations in Notes and warnings. If you posted invoices against an Landed Cost Tracking shipment, then those values are used as your actual costs when processing the receipt into inspection. If no invoice was posted against an element, then by default, the GRN value is based on the expected cost for the element. This program does not check for zero value elements. Any LCT elements that should not be included in the inspection receipt should therefore be removed from the shipment before processing the receipt into inspection. |

Ledger code |
This is applicable when Inventory is linked to the General Ledger (General Ledger Integration) and the option: Request ledger code for - Purchase order receipts - Credits is enabled (Inventory Setup). If Inventory is linked to General Ledger in summary or detail, then the ledger code entered is validated. The default ledger code used is the Inventory Ledger Interface entry for Receipts (General Ledger Integration) if either the GRN suspense system is not installed, or the GRN suspense system is installed but you indicated that GRN matching is not required for the supplier (Suppliers). The GRN suspense control account (General Ledger Integration) is used as the default if the GRN suspense system is installed; a non-stocked line is being receipted; and you indicated that GRN matching is required for the supplier (Suppliers). For stocked lines, where the GRN suspense system is installed, the ledger code defaults to the entry made at the GRN suspense ledger code within the Warehouses program. If this entry is blank, then the account defined within the General Ledger Integration program is used (General Ledger Integration) providing that you have indicated that GRN matching is required for the supplier (Suppliers). The default ledger code can be changed if the option: Request ledger code for - Purchase order receipts - Credits is enabled (Inventory Setup). If this setup option is not selected, then this field is not enabled. |

Issue direct to job |
Select this to assign the line item to a job. You then enter the job number. If you issue an item (stocked or non-stocked) directly to a job, then ensure that your WIP and Inventory modules are in the same posting month. This is achieved by running the required number of month ends in either module until the posting month is the same for both modules. If the Inventory module is not installed then ensure that your WIP and Purchase Order modules are in the same posting month. However, since the Purchase Order module does not have its own month end function, you need to manually adjust the current month from within your Purchase Order Setup options. If the item is linked to a sales order, then this field is disabled, because the item cannot be issued to a job. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Job | The job number assigned to the original purchase
order line is displayed as the default. If the item is linked to a sales order, then this field is disabled because the item cannot be issued to a job. |

Note that if the option: Apply cost multiplier to process receipt (Inventory Setup) is not enabled, then the cost multiplier displayed is not applied to the receipt (i.e. the cost multiplier displayed here is only applied if the Apply cost multiplier option above is enabled). The values calculated using a cost multiplier depend on the costing method defined for Inventory (Inventory Setup, or Warehouses when costing per warehouse):
The Cost multiplier value is posted to the ledger account defined in the Non-merchandise Distribution pane. |
Enter non-merchandise cost | Select this to enter a non-merchandise amount that
the system should use instead of calculating the amount
using the cost multiplier. This option must be enabled when the Receipt cost is zero, but you want to apply a non-merchandise cost. |
Non-merchandise cost |
You can only add a non-merchandise cost portion to your transaction if you enabled the Enter non-merchandise cost option. The cost that you enter here is used as the non-merchandise cost and the system does not calculate an amount using the cost multiplier. A non-merchandise cost can be applied to an item when the Receipt cost is zero providing all of the following apply:

If the GL analysis required option is enabled for a ledger account used in this program (General Ledger Codes or GL Structure Definition) then the Capture GL Analysis Entries program is displayed when you post the transaction, so that you can enter the analysis details. For a sub module transaction, the sub module must also be linked to the General Ledger in Detail at company level (General Ledger Integration) or at ledger account code level (General Ledger Codes or GL Structure Definition). GL analysis entries cannot be entered from sub modules if the sub module is linked to the General Ledger in Summary at company level or at ledger account code level.
Note that the GL analysis required option is ignored for all GL codes which are defined in General Ledger Integration. This applies even when the GL code is manually entered in a posting program. Although GL integration programs may be entered manually, they may also be called automatically by other programs or may be automated, which means that they can never be stopped to allow GL analysis entries to be captured.
If the GL analysis code used does not exist in the GenAnalysisCat table, then a message to this effect is displayed and the program will not prompt for analysis again. The GL journal will be created but not posted until the GL code, GL analysis code and GL journal are corrected.
The Ask Me Later function is only available when the option: Force GL Analysis - GL journal posting is enabled for the sub-module (General Ledger Integration).
General Ledger analysis entries are always distributed in the local currency, regardless of the currency in which the original transaction is processed.
If an item is defined as bought-out at warehouse level (Inventory Warehouse Maintenance for Stock Code) then the supplier defined against the warehouse is used instead of the supplier held against the stock code.
Purchase order inspection documents can be printed online using the Inventory Document Print program if you indicated that the Document selections option for PO receipts and for Inspections is On Line and Batch (Inventory Setup).
When printing on-line, a document is generated for each transaction processed (i.e. for each purchase order receipt line).
Electronic Signatures provide security access, transaction logging and event triggering. This enables you to increase control over your system changes.
Access to the following eSignature transactions within this program can be restricted at Operator, Group, Role or Company level. You configure this using the eSignature Setup program.
