Manual Match Incoming Receiving Advice: Type Approved Goods
Explanation
This activity is used to manually match customer order deliveries with incoming receiving advice lines of type
Approved Goods. Manual matching is to be performed when a receiving advice line could not be matched automatically,
or when automatic matching settings have not been set up for a receiving advice enabled customer.
You will need to perform this activity when the customer's receiving advice type is Approved Goods, or
Arrived and Approved Goods. You must equate the quantity that has been confirmed approved and the quantity that has
been confirmed arrived on the receiving advice lines, to those quantities on one or more deliveries.
The Receiving Advice header can be in the following statuses:
- Received - The message is initially displayed.
- Stopped - An error has occurred during the matching process. Refer to the error message on
the General tab. If you had set up an automatic initiation of matching incoming receiving advices, and
an error occurred, the message will be displayed with the Stopped status from the beginning.
- Changed - Information has been manually changed on the header or line.
- Qty Difference - A quantity difference is found during the matching process.
- Matched - All the lines in the message have been matched.
- Partially Matched - Only some of the lines have been matched.
- Cancelled - All the lines in the message have been cancelled.
If the receiving advice type is Arrived and Approved Goods, a delivery is usually matched twice; once with
incoming receiving advice lines of type Arrived Goods (according to the activity Manually Match Incoming Receiving
Advice: Type Arrived Goods), and then with Approved Goods. Alternatively you can match a delivery once; only for
the receiving advice of type Approved Goods.
Prerequisites
- The customer order to be matched must have been enabled for delivery confirmation.
- The receiving advice type Approved Goods or Arrived and Approved Goods must have been selected on the
customer order line to be matched.
- The customer order line must have the ownership Company Owned to be able to be matched to a receiving
advice.
System Effects
- The status of the incoming receiving advice line will be set to Matched. If all the other lines have also
been matched, the status of the header is also set to Matched.
- Matched customer order deliveries will become delivery confirmed.
