Action

Field or Control

Description

Interface Receipt

Select to submit the Process Receipts jobs to the process scheduler for the selected receipts. The process receipts (RECV_07) will only process those receipts where there is unprocessed data. For example, it will not push a receipt line to inventory if it was already processed in a previous execution.

Receipt Accrual

Select to submit the Receipt Accrual process to the process scheduler for the selected receipts.

Cancel Receipt(s)

Select to cancel the selected receipts. The cancel receipt functionality is equivalent to the header level receipt cancel on the online receipt page.

The receipts that have not been interfaced to other products will be placed in the “Qualified” list on the Processing Results page.

Note: The Cancel Receipt process uses CI PO_RECV_WB_VAL_CI and PO_RECV_WB_CNCL_CI. Users who need to perform this Cancel Receipt action will also need security access to these CIs.

Close Receipt

Select to perform close processing on the selected receipts.

Receipts that have been fully interfaced and meet the Receipt Close Delay Days requirement will be placed in the “Qualified” list on the Processing Results page. To be fully interfaced all lines on the selected receipts should have:

  • Process Complete equal to "Yes" after the Process Receipt job completed (PO_RECVPUSH)

  • Asset Management Move status equal to “Moved” or “N/A”

  • Inventory Move status equal to “Moved” or “N/A”

  • Manufacturing Move status equal to “Moved” or “N/A”

  • Receipt Match Status equals to "Matched" if Matching is required for the receipt line.

Note: The Receipt Close process saves the current status from the receipt header, line, distribution, and asset records in a Previous Close Status field on corresponding tables RECV_WB_HDR, RECV_WB_LN_SHIP, RECV_WB_DISTRIB, and RECV_WB_ASSET. You can view the Previous Close Status on the Receipt Inquiry pages.

Re-open Receipt

Select to reopen closed receipts. Receipts that have been cancelled will not qualify for reopening.

Note: The Receipt Reopen functionality sets the current status on the receipt header, line, asset and distribution records to the Previous Close Status from corresponding tables RECV_WB_HDR, RECV_WB_LN_SHIP, RECV_WB_DISTRIB, and RECV_WB_ASSET. The data on these tables for the reopened receipts is then deleted.
