Bulk Product Receipts

You record the receipt of bulk products requested on a purchase order as they arrive at the depot. You can confirm the receipt of the products requested on the purchase order, record the volumes received, and make adjustments to correct variances. Additionally, you can calculate any gains or losses that might have occurred during transportation.

As product moves between storage locations, gains or losses might occur due to spillage, theft, faulty meters, and so on. Four-Point Analysis Maintenance helps you track these gains or losses. You perform a four-point analysis primarily for long voyages to determine the product lost in transit, but you can record the data for any movement.

Receipts is a standard JD Edwards program. However, when you record the receipt of a bulk product, the JD Edwards Bulk Stock Inventory system version of the program displays the Bulk Product Receipts form. This form allows you to record product volumes and temperatures that were recorded when the product was received.
