The Production receipts form is used to register the parts supplied by your production department and the destination for which you want to receive these parts. They could be goods produced for stock or a sales order, goods serving as components for another production order, or goods of which the destination is not yet known.
Partial receipts of production orders can be registered. Initially, you might receive only 10 parts, for instance, whereas 100 parts will be produced in total. In that case, you can register and process the partial delivery of 10 parts now, so that the Isah records show that 10 are already available. The receipt of the remaining parts will be registered at the time the parts are ready.
Note: Receipts need to be authorized before they can be processed. You can authorize a receipt line by advancing the Receipt status to 'Ready for processing'. Alternatively, you can open the Edit menu and choose Change receipt status. This last option is often the quicker option when you want to authorize multiple receipt lines.
Receipt lines can be added using . If your production department completes several products at the same time, however, you can also have the receipt lines on the Production receipts form created automatically. In that case, you will not have to manually create a receipt line for each part. This option is often the quicker option when you receive parts for multiple production orders.
To process the receipt lines, open the Edit menu and choose Process receipts. The required entries will now be made, for example to increase the stock (if the parts had been produced for stocking purposes).
