Receive a delivery against a purchase order

Create the order

1. Go to Purchases → Purchase orders → Add, or start from the low-stock list.
2. Choose the supplier and add items and quantities. Send it the way the supplier takes orders.

When the delivery arrives

1. Open the order and choose Receive.
2. Scan or count what actually arrived. Change quantities for shorts; note damaged cases.
3. Enter the invoice number and the cost if it changed.
4. Save. Stock goes up immediately.

Direct-store deliveries without an order

Beer, soda and snack route drivers often bring what they think you need. Create a purchase straight from the supplier, scan the items in, and save.

Paying the supplier

Pay from the purchase screen: cash from the drawer (logged as a payout), bank transfer or credit. The supplier ledger shows what you still owe.
