Booking Stock In

This page helps you to understand 'Booking Stock In'.

It's part of the 'Stock' getting-started series.

Making Goods Receipts

This section of the tutorial describes how to create goods receipts.

Once stock has arrived to the store, all there's to do before you can sell is to 'goods receipt' (GR or book in) the stock.

In this tutorial we'll book in stock for a purchase order.

On the main side menu, go to the Stock Management section.

Select 'Goods Receipts' > 'New'.

You're now on the Goods Receipts page.

In the 'Purchase Order' field search for the purchase order that your stock arrived on and select it.

This will auto populate the Goods Receipt with the items on the purchase order.

Tip

Though the 'Receipt Date' will automatically be set to the current date, most likely you'll hardly ever need to set the date manually.

  • Set the 'Receipt Date' if needed.
  • Add the packing slip number to the 'Packing Slip' field.
  • Add a comment if needed.
  • Set the location if you have warehouses. Otherwise the default is 'Store'.

Now in the 'Goods Receipt Details' section.

Under the 'Receipt Qty' field set the quantity of stock to book in.

You can also select the 'Book' icon under the actions column to set the receipt quantity amount to maximum/full.

Once you have selected the stock quantity to book in, select the 'Complete' button.

Then select 'OK' to confirm and fully complete the goods receipt.

To print the receipt, find the option in the settings menu on the right side of the 'Goods Receipt Header'.

Select 'Print Goods Receipt'.

The printout will look something like this.

Uploading Stock

In the main menu on the left of screen, go to the Stock Management section.
