Confirming a Goods Receipt

The following video introduces the goods receipt confirmation in the self-service requisition process.

Goods Receipt Confirmation

After the materials from your purchase requisitions have been ordered and delivered, you can confirm the receipt of the goods.

The Confirm Receipt of Goods app lists all your purchase requisitions with material items that are relevant for confirmation. Purchase requisitions with a purchase order as a follow-on document are relevant for confirmation.

However, the app also lists all requisitions relevant for confirmation that have been requested for you by other employees.

Requisition items appear as available for confirmation until the order quantity for the item is fully confirmed or the Final Delivery indicator is set for the item.

You can also use the Confirm Receipt of Goods app to post a return delivery for delivered (confirmed) materials. In this case, you must enter the quantity to be returned and a return reason for the item.

The screenshot shows the Confirm Receipt of Goods app.

In the Confirm Receipt of Goods app, you can search for a document using a purchase order or purchase requisition number.

If you need more information, you can navigate to the purchase requisition item fact sheet.

It is possible to confirm partial quantities for an item and mark the item for final delivery.

You can also initiate a goods receipt confirmation or a return delivery posting from the My Purchase Requisitions application. To do so, select the relevant purchase requisition from the list and choose the Confirm or Return button.

In the following demo, you will learn how to confirm the goods receipt of the requested material using the Confirm Receipt of Goods app and how to check the status of the requests using the My Purchase Requisitions app.
