Display Receipts
Summary
The Receipts window is used to view the receipts created in the Receiving process (PO> Receiving). If you receive purchase orders in the PO module, the Receipts window will display a list of receipts. You cannot modify receipts from this window.
When receiving Purchase Orders (PO> Receiving), you can receive only one purchase order per receipt, so each receipt in the window will be attached to a single purchase order. You can receive multiple PO line items on a single receipt, so there can be several different items associated with each receipt.

- The Product Code field is used to filter the receipt by the product code attached to the purchase order line item. A product code is generally the code or serial number the vendor uses to reference the product on the purchase order line item.

If the receipt received 6 of the 10 units on the receipt, the Outstanding column will display 10 even though there may currently be 4 units outstanding on the purchase order line item and the Received column will display 6.
