How to Post a Goods Receipt 

To deliver an order to stock, proceed as follows:

  1. Starting in the initial screen, select the menu options Logistics ® Materials management ® Inventory management and then Goods movement ® Goods receipt ® For order.
  2. Select the menu options Movement type ® Order to warehouse (101).
  3. – The system displays the movement type in the corresponding field. Check the entry, add the order number, the plant and the storage location and then press ENTER.

    – You reach the screen Goods Receipt for Order: New Items 0001. The system proposes the following quantity:

    – if you are not using inspection accompanying manufacture, or inspections for operations or phases, the planned quantity is proposed from the order.

    – if you are inspecting using inspection points, the system proposes those quantities recorded during results recording for the operation that feature the indicator ‘last partial lot allocation’.
    If the material is subject to handling in batches, the material quantity per batch is proposed.

    Note, that, in this case, the value derived in PP-PI should be ignored, as no confirmations are normally generated by QM.

  4. Enter the quantity that you want to deliver to stock.
  5. – If the process order is finished, set the indicator "final delivery".

    – If only a part of the order quantity is delivered to stock, do not set the indicator.

  6. Save the goods receipt.

You can find further information on goods movements in the MM Inventory Management Guide.

A goods receipt can also be generated using process messages on the produced material quantity from process control. See also R/3 Integration Using Process Messages.
