Receiving: Receipt Processing Methods Cont4

Blind Receiving

Blind receiving helps you ensure that receivers record the exact amount they receive. With blind receiving, you cannot see the quantity due or the quantity ordered for shipments when you receive items. Oracle Purchasing ignores all quantity receipt tolerances to help ensure that you can receive the exact amount the supplier shipped.

Enable Allow Blind Receiving at Receiving Options

Navigation: Setup  >Organizations > Receiving Options
Create PO and approve PO

Now when we receive receipts, system will not show PO quantity, instead of it show zero .
Receiving > Receipts for PO 3022
 
The reason behind this option is to count the goods, once arrived at gate and enter received quantity manually in the system.


Important Receiving Profile Options:

PO: Enable SQL Trace for Receiving Processor

Yes means that when you run the Receiving Transaction Processor, the View Log screen displays the receiving transaction pre-processor’s actions, including errors, as it processed the receipt data from start to finish. Yes also generates a trace file in the database; if you need help with an error that occurs while the Receiving Transaction Processor runs, Oracle Support Services may ask you for this trace file. This profile option should be set to Yes only while debugging the Receiving Open Interface. The Receiving Open Interface validates receipt transactions from other systems and uses the Receiving Transaction Processor to import the validated data into Purchasing.

RCV: Fail All ASN Lines if One Line Fails

If you choose Yes, you can reject an entire Advance Shipment Notice (ASN) if any ASN line fails validation or processing. If you choose No, then you can accept an ASN if at least one ASN line is successful.

RCV: Print Receipt Traveler

Yes or No indicates whether Oracle Purchasing automatically prints the receipt traveler when you perform a receipt or a receiving transaction, and when you match unordered receipts. You can always print receipt travelers from the Submit Requests window.

RCV: Processing Mode

Indicates the processing mode used after you save your work for receiving transactions.

PO: ERS Aging Period

The value in this profile option indicates the number of days between the receipt date and the Payment on Receipt automatic invoice creation date. For example, a value of 2 means that Payment on Receipt creates invoices only for receipts that are 2 or more days old. Any corrections or returns you make against a receipt during that 2-day period are included on the Payment on Receipt invoice.

PO: ERS Invoice Number Prefix

“ERS-” is the prefix that appears before all invoices that you create automatically using Payment on Receipt. This profile option allows you to change this prefix. For example, shortening this prefix allows extra spaces for longer packing slip or receipt numbers.
