---++ Receipt/Invoice Entry Screen

Receipting goods is done using the "Receipt/Invoice Entry" screen.  Start up the *Microsoft Dynamics SL* screen and select the *Purchasing* module.  Then invoke the *Receipt/Invoice Entry* application from the *Input* area (normally the top centre of screen).

---+++ Receipting concepts

The basic concept behind the application is that you may have received a bunch of goods from different vendors.  You may not know immediately which Purchase Orders (Requisitions) are involved.  

For each vendor, the application requires that you select the vendor ID.  It will create a Receipt *Document* with a *Receipt Number* for that vendor.  You can then work through each purchase order for that vendor.  You can receipt all lines on the Purchase Order or do partial receipts.  You must then confirm the quantity  and cost.

At this point you may save the receipt document and work on a receipt document for other vendors.  Such a set of receipt documents makes up a "Batch".     This is optional - you need have only one receipt document in a given batch (and is probably more suitable to large inwards goods departments).

You can confirm the quantity and cost of goods for the batch and then release the batch.
