Goods receipt documents

Written by Adrian Berger

With the Good receipt document module, you can create a receipt including the incoming items during the process of Package receipt.

Important

Note that stock receipt documents in Xentral are explicitly not PDF documents, so you cannot download, save, or print these documents. However, it is possible to view individual stock receipt documents in the Warehouse > Parcel Acceptance > Stock Receipt Documents > Documents tab. To do this, locate the stock receipt document you want from the list of completed stock receipt documents and click the arrow icon on the left of the corresponding entry to see all details about the stock receipt document.

​

Creating a goods receipt document

In the Stock > Package Receipt menu, you can scan an item in the Scan area at the top right or enter the item number manually.

All items that you assign afterwards are collected in the goods receipt document in the background until you click Complete package receipt.

As soon as the goods receipt document has been finished by clicking on Complete package receipt, the corresponding entry appears in the Goods receipt documents tab.

You can also enter excess deliveries via goods receipt document. To do so, open the corresponding purchase order and select the option Create goods receipt document from the action menu. Here you can then enter the actual quantity delivered.

Important

The button Create stock receipt document is only visible if you use Xentral as an administrator. For users without admin rights, you must first assign special user rights so that the button is visible and stock receipt documents can be created. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Settings > General Settings > User Management > Manage Users menu.

  2. Open the user who should be granted the rights to create stock receipt documents by clicking the pen icon on the right.

  3. Click on Rights.

  4. Activate all rights in the Receiptdocument and Receiptprotocolitems sections.

  5. Click on Save.

​

Continuing as sales order

If you want to continue an already created goods receipt document as a sales order, open the detailed view of the document by clicking on the arrow icon to the left.

Then select Create sales order from the drop-down menu at the top left of the detail view. A new window will open where you can provide more details about the items contained in the sales order.
