How to receive a purchase order

Mark items as received, partially received, or rejected — stock updates automatically.

4 min read

When boxes arrive at your destination, you receive them against the PO. LunixPOS supports full receipt, partial receipt, and rejection per line item — everything is tracked.

  1. 1

    Open the PO

    Go to Inventory → Manage PO, find the order (filter by Ordered if it's hard to spot), and click into the detail view.

  2. 2

    Click Receive Items

    The Receive Items modal opens with a progress bar showing 'Received: X of Y' and a table of every line on the PO.

  3. 3

    Set received and rejected quantities

    For each line, enter how many units arrived (Received Quantity) and how many were damaged or wrong (Reject Quantity). Leaving both at zero means the line wasn't fulfilled yet.

  4. 4

    Use the bulk shortcuts (optional)

    Click "Accept All Unreceived" to mark every remaining line as fully received, or "Reject All Unreceived" if the whole shipment was unusable.

  5. 5

    Confirm

    Submit the modal. Stock at the Destination location increases by the received quantity. The PO status updates to Partially-Received or Received depending on whether anything remains outstanding.

  6. 6

    Receive the rest later (if partial)

    If only some of the order arrived, the PO stays open. Open it again when the next shipment arrives and click Receive Items to log the rest.
