What is Goods Receipt?
Receiving, Goods Receipt
Counting the arrived goods, placing them in the warehouse, and recording them in the system.
What it means
Receiving is the moment when goods become inventory in the warehouse. Inventory does not become available just because a truck puts down a box, but the inventory on the screen increases only when the quantity is checked and input into the system.
When stocking, enter the actually counted quantity, not the quantity written on the order form. Because there are things that come less or things that come more.
At the pen factory
Black refill arrives from Daehan Refills on the 3rd day. Foreman Kim and I counted the boxes and there were 2 boxes of 100 pieces, or 200 pieces. If you put 200 into the warehouse terminal, the inventory will increase from 40 pieces to 240 pieces.
Why it matters
If you don't enter the goods, you can't start production because the goods are in the warehouse but not on the screen. If you put it in without counting, the inventory on the screen will be incorrect from the beginning.
How this differs from Production receipt
Receiving refers to the arrival of purchased materials, and production receiving refers to the arrival of our manufactured products into the finished product warehouse.
