Purchase Order Receipt to Receiving Inspection

You can use the Receipts window in Oracle Purchasing to receive material or outside processing items from a supplier into a receiving location (destination type = receiving). You can also use this window to receive material directly to inventory. See: Purchase Order Receipt To Inventory.

When you receive material or outside processing items from a supplier into receiving inspection, the Receiving Inspection account is debited and the Inventory A/P Accrual account is credited based on the quantity received and the purchase order price.

Account Debit Credit
Receiving Inspection account @ PO cost XX  
      Inventory A/P Accrual account @ PO cost   XX

Attention: If a purchase order line item lacks a defined price, the system uses zero to value the transaction.
