Getting the Goods In

After you send a purchase order, you typically receive goods after a reasonable amount of time. (If you don’t, you need to pursue the issue with the supplier!) When the goods arrive, you need to book them into Sage.

If you placed the order for a project and completed the PO as described in the earlier sections in this chapter, Sage automatically records the stock as delivered and allocates it to the proper project.

In the following sections, I cover three alternative ways of recording the delivery of goods.

Using goods received notes

A quick and easy way of recording the delivery of stock, goods received notes (GRNs) enable you to record deliveries against more than one order at the same time. Sage keeps a record of all GRNs raised against each order. You can view and print these by going to the Deliveries tab of each order.
