Overview
Some purchase receipts are either missing stock, incorrect product or include damaged goods. Some of the common ways to handl this include. Calling the supplier then:
- Supplier is willing to send the short delivered items on a separate delivery
- Supplier will not send you the goods. You need to claim a credit for the short sent or damaged goods
| Warning |
|---|
Always receive the stock shown on the suppliers delivery docket/invoice. Even if you did not receive the stock, the wrong product is sent or the stock is damaged. Always receipt any stock that is going to be returned to the supplier into a quarantine location. You need the receipt you enter into Readysell to match the suppliers delivery docket/invoice. |
| Info |
|---|
If only part of a receipt for a product is missing/damaged. When receipting stock into quarantine locations from a purchase receipt. Use the split receipt line button to break the line in two. Then put the damaged/missing part of the receipt to a quarantine location and put the good part of the receipt on the second line for the product. Do not put all of the stock into quarantine. Only the part that is missing or damaged. |
| Warning |
|---|
Make sure you know how to setup a quarantine location properly before you proceed. See Locations. |

Re the general ledger side of the returned stock value vs the credit value from the supplier if it varies If the interface rule for STKCRD is set for the GL account to be the stock price variance account which represents the difference between the cost on the purchase receipt for the credit and the cost on the purchase invoice for the credit. The account is set up to be cleared at year-end as part of the P&L appropriation roll. Given that there will always be some differences between purchase invoice prices and purchase receipt prices, that the number and value of the purchase variance returns are moderate and the amount is automatically cleared at year-end. |
