This example illustrates how to receive a completely fulfilled parts list from a Purchase Order (PO) into inventory in one simple step.

PO_Receiving_into_Inventory

Moving the PO into the Archived state processes all the parts on the PO and puts them automatically into inventory or alternatively if the Part Definition is configured to run a Flow Definition the parts will be attached to a traveler e.g. a Flow Definition for serialization and location management. The PO Parts Tab shows that the twelve parts are now in inventory:

PO_Receiving_into_Inventory_3

The Receiving Report for the PO now illustrates 12 Ordered and 12 Received:

PO_Receiving_into_Inventory_2
