Purchasing Workflow
Follow these steps to move a purchase from creation to receipt.1
Create a purchase
Go to Purchases > New Purchase. Add the vendor, then select the products, quantities, and unit prices. Review the grand total and confirm. The purchase starts with a status of Created.
2
Mark in transit
When the supplier ships the order, open the purchase and change the status to Transit. Only purchases with a Created status can be marked in transit.
3
Receive stock
When the shipment arrives, open Receive Stock, select the purchase, and compare the delivered items to the order. Confirm the actual quantities received and record any damaged or missing units before completing the receipt.
4
Review in All Purchases
Go to All Purchases to see every order and its current status. Statuses are Created, Transit, or Received.
Once a purchase is marked in transit, the destination store is locked and cannot be changed. Make sure the correct store is selected before you update the status.
