Once the receipt has been created, you can modify the quantity as well, but only for products which are not managed in stock. For products which are managed in stock, since the stock movements have already been performed, you are not authorized to modify the received quantity in this field: you need to use the Receipt modification function, available from the Actions icon on the receipt line.
Important notes on subcontract receipt lines with or without WO:
- If the received quantity is less than the ordered quantity for the released and received product, or for the consumed materials related to the subcontracted product, you must manually identify the consumed material lines. Click Subcon. order issues from the Actionsicon to display the stock lines. Next, click the Actions icon at receipt line level, then select Enter detailed quantities to specify the quantity actually consumed.
- Once the receipt has been saved, you cannot modify the received quantity or the stock information, irrespective of the released product received or of the materials consumed for the subcontracted product.
When a receipt line is partially invoiced (directly or through an order invoice), or when a line is linked to an additional invoice, you are no longer authorized to modify the quantity because this modification would impact the distribution of the invoicing elements.
When the receipt line originates from an inter-site or inter-company delivery line, you can:
- Receive less than the delivered quantity. A warning message will warn you.
In this context, two interpretations are possible:
- The delivery occurred only in part because the goods will be entered over several receipts or because the entry of the receipt is not completely finished.
- The delivery occurred only in part because there is an error in the entry of the original delivery or because the goods were stolen or lost.
In this case it will be necessary to carry out a corrective action at the shipment site. - receive more than the expected quantity. A warning message will also signal this. It is probably due to an error on the original delivery. As a consequence it will then be necessary to correct it. The receipt line closing field is never available in this context.
If the receipt comes from a delivery request and only part of the request is received, this request will be automatically split and the new generated request will or will not be closed depending on the closing value calculated for the receipt line.
When the receipt line is created from an order line (receipt of an order or shipment linked to an order line), you can:
- receive less than the ordered quantity. The management of the balance will then depend on the POHCLE - PO line closing method parameter (chapter ACH, group REM) and the product record (for the tolerance). Depending on the value assigned to this parameter and on the transaction used, you can decide to manually close the balance.
When the receipt relates to products which landed costs are managed in a cost structure, the quantity can impact the calculation of costs (based on the defined cost type).
In this case, if the receipt is a partial one and this concerns:
- an order receipt, the amount of the costs on received lines is determined based on the pro rata of the received quantity if the STCPTH - Cost loading upon order rcpt parameter (chapter ACH, group REC) is set to Pro rata. If it is set to Recalculation, the amount of the costs is recalculated based on the quantity but also on all the criteria that have an impact on the calculation (especially the weight and volume).
- A shipments receipt, the amount of the costs on received lines is determined based on the pro rata of the received quantity. Besides, based on the set of criteria, the recalculation impacts the calculation (e.g. weight and volume) performed during shipment.
This rule also applies in case of modification of the quantity, regardless of whether the modification is performed before or after the creation of the receipt line.
- receive more than the ordered quantity provided that the RCPORD - Allow over receipts parameter (chapter ACH, group REM) authorizes it. You will still be notified by a warning message. When receiving a shipment, no control based on the shipped quantity is performed.
