Complete five receiving-specific electronic data collection transactions.

Transaction Maintenance Page

BCT_CTL_UPD

View EDC receiving transactions in the transaction log. The transaction log provides access to transaction detail pages that enable you to correct transaction errors.

You can use EDC to enter receipts in PeopleSoft Purchasing. Use the Purchasing Receiving - Receiving page to complete five receiving-specific transactions using an EDC system. You can also choose to enter data manually on this page to create receiving data that could have been automatically entered using an EDC device.

When you save an EDC transaction page, the page clears so that you can enter another transaction immediately. These transactions are saved in the transaction log until they are picked up by the background processes. These background processes can be set up to continually scan the transaction log.

When you enter the transaction data using these data collection pages, selected pieces of information on the page trigger edits that validate the data entered. In addition, the background processes validate all information before any updates are performed.
