Select this if you already have a referencing system that you want to continue for your purchase orders. You can use numbers and letters in your references.

Enter the Next goods received number.

When you receive goods, a Goods Received Number (GRN) is automatically associated with the purchase order. It is also applied to the record of goods despatched to your supplier when dealing with purchase returns. You must specify the next GRN number.

Select Display outstanding order quantities during goods received entry to show the number of outstanding items when confirming goods as received, or when confirming goods as despatched when dealing with returns.

This is the quantity required to complete the order or return.

Clear this option to hide the outstanding quantities when processing goods received.
