Purchasing > Receipts > Order pre-receipt 

Pre-receipts are meant to foresee the effective receipt of ordered goods based on information provided by the supplier. You can update the planned receipt date and enter the quantities that will effectively be received. Pre-entering this information will contribute to the optimization of the supply process, help avoid stock shortages and notify customers of late or incomplete deliveries.

This function is only used to manage pre-receipts of orders not managed using shipments. 
The management of shipments pre-receipts linked to orders or containers is carried out in the Shipment pre-receipt function.

This field is used to specify the site to which the purchase orders or the freight containers that you want to select are linked. Choosing a site allows you to filter in the selection panel only the purchase orders and freight containers recorded for this site. Once the first order or the first container has been selected, the site can no longer be modified.
In a shipment, if you want to save orders or freight containers originating from different sites (but belonging to the same company), leave that field empty and use the Picking criteria to carry out your selection.

Help common to the Shipments, Shipment pre-receipt and Order pre-receipt functions.
Use this field to specify the supplier to which the purchase orders or the freight containers that you want to select are linked. Choosing a supplier allows you to filter in the selection panel only those purchase orders placed with this supplier or the freight containers associated with this supplier.
If you have also entered a site:

  • The order selection panel is filtered with only the orders placed on that site with the specified supplier.
  • The freight container selection panel is filtered with only the containers associated with this site and defined for the specified supplier.

Once the first order or the first container has been selected, the supplier can no longer be modified.
For a given shipment, if you want to save orders placed with different suppliers, or freight containers defined for different suppliers, leave that field empty and use the Picking criteria to carry out your selection.

Ordered product reference.

  • Description (field ITMDES)

This is the description translated into the supplier's language.

  • Standard description (field ITMDES1)

This is the description from the product record.

This field displays the unit in which the order is done and cannot be modified.

  • Shipped qty. (field SHIQTY)

Help common to functions: Shipments, Shipment pre-receipt and Order pre-receipt.

This field contains the dispatched quantity.

  • In the Shipment screen used for order lines, you can only modify the quantity when the order line is not included in a container. If the order line is included in a container, the modification must be carried out at the container level.
    When partially shipping orders including products with landed costs in a cost structure, the amount of costs for the related shipped lines is recalculated based on the quantity, but also on the criteria affecting the calculation (in particular the weight and volume).
  • In the container shipment screen and in the Pre-receipt screens, the quantity cannot be modified.
  • Shipped (field SHIPP)

This non modifiable field shows the line shipment status:

  • No:
    The shipment status is Created. No quantity has been shipped yet.
  • Partially:
    The shipped quantity is lower than the ordered quantity.
  • Totally:
    The shipped quantity is greater than or equal to the ordered quantity.
  • Exp. receipt date (field EXTRCPDAT)

Help common to functions: Shipments, Shipment pre-receipt and Order pre-receipt.

This field contains the expected arrival date of the shipment. This date is calculated automatically as follows:
Arrival date or expected arrival date + transport lead time from the transport arrival place to the receiving site of the order line + release time on the receipt site (place).

SEEWARNINGSince no transport mode or carrier is specified on the shipment line of the order line for carrying the goods from the arrival place to the receipt site, the considered lead time is the one set up without carrier and with a Not defined transport mode. If this setup is not available, the calculation of the planned receipt date is performed with no transport lead time.

If the information required for the calculation is not provided, the date is initialized based on the planned receipt date of the order.

This date can be modified as long as the shipment status is Created. Any modification to this date at the level of the Shipment function is automatically applied at the level of the Pre-receipt screen, and vice-versa. The date is also updated in the ORDERS table used in the MRP calculation. However, it is not updated in the order. 

  • Pre-received qty. (field PRCPQTY)

Help common to functions: Shipments, Shipment pre-receipt and Order pre-receipt.

This field contains the pre-received quantity. This quantity can only be entered at the level of the pre-receipt screen as long as the status of the shipment is 'Created'.
When all the shipment lines have an entered quantity, the shipment status goes from 'Created' to 'Pre-receipt'.

In Shipment pre-receipt:

  • Click the Pre-receipt action from the Actions panel to automatically initialize, on each line, the pre-receipt quantity based on the shipped quantity. The Pre-receipt flag is then automatically enabled. This action is only available when no pre-receipt quantity has been entered.
  • You can enter a pre-received quantity equal to 0 and still specify that the line has been pre-received. You use this specific setup to manage situations where the goods are never received (e.g.: theft or loss). The shipment line cannot be selected on Receipt but a shipment can be created again for the order line.
  • Pre-received (field PRCPFLG)

This field indicates if the line has been subject to a pre-receipt. It cannot be modified.

SEEINFO InShipment pre-receipts, you can indicate that the line has been pre-received while entering a pre-received quantity of 0.

The shipment line cannot be selected on Receipt but a shipment can be created again for the order line.

 

  • Weight (field QTYWEU)

Help common to functions: Shipments, Shipment pre-receipt and Order pre-receipt.

  • In the Shipment screen used for order lines, you can only modify the weight when the order line is not included in a container. If the order line is included in a container, the modification must be carried out at the container level.
    When partially shipping orders including products with landed costs in a cost structure, the amount of costs for the related shipped lines is recalculated based on the quantity, but also on the criteria affecting the calculation (in particular the weight and volume).

  • Landed cost coef. (field CPRCOE)

Help common to functions: Shipments and Shipment pre-receipt. This field is also displayed, but not determining, in the Order pre-receipt function.

The landed cost coefficient is initialized to the one of the order and can be modified, except in the Shipment pre-receipt function.
The management of this field depends on the method used to determine the landed costs. When it can be entered, the landed cost coefficient must be greater than or equal to 1.
It is used to impact the order price of the shipment by including costs that have been previously estimated.
Upon receipt of the supplier invoice, the landed costs impacted on the stock can be adjusted with the actual costs identified in the supplier invoice if the valuation method of the product authorizes adjustments and if parameter PIHCPR - Invoice price adjustment also authorizes it.

Reminder on landed costs:

The management of landed costs makes it possible to quantify the routing costs of the goods ordered from a supplier and to allocate them to the products upon order, receipt or invoice. These costs are used for the calculation of the purchase cost and stock cost.
The evaluation of these costs can be performed according to one of the two following methods:

  • global method in which a Landed cost coefficient is applied and/or a Fixed cost per unit is taken into account,
  • method in which a set of costs detailed in a cost structure is taken into account.

Only one method can be used, the choice of this method is performed at the level of the product management.

  • Fixed cost per unit (field CPRAMT)

Help common to functions: Shipments and Shipment pre-receipt. This field is also displayed, but not determining, in the Order pre-receipt function.

The fixed cost per unit is initialized to the one of the order and can be modified, except in the Shipment pre-receipt function.
The management of this field depends on the method used to determine the landed costs and on the entry transaction used. When it can be entered, this value, which must be a positive value, is expressed in the company currency.
