Types of Receipts (Receiving Transactions)

There are 5 types of Receipts in oracle Purchasing.

1. Blind Receipt.
2. Express Receipt.
3. Cascade Receipt.
4. Unordered Receipt.
5. PO Receipt (Used Commonly).

Blind Receipt
Blind receiving helps you ensure that receivers record the exact amount they receive. With
blind receiving, we cannot see the quantity due or the quantity ordered for shipments when we
receive items. Purchasing ignores all quantity receipt tolerances to help ensure that you can
receive the exact amount the supplier shipped.
Prerequisite:
 Express Receipt
The express function is a quick method of entering receipts and receiving transactions.
When Express button is selected in the Receipts window, Purchasing displays the Express
Details window in which you must enter the destination: Final Destination or Receiving location.
When OK button is selected, all lines are selected and the Express button changes to Unexpress.
When we select the Express button in the Receiving Transactions window, all lines are selected
and the Express button changes to Unexpress. In either case, we can select the unexpress
button to return to manual mode. Otherwise, we can deselect lines to omit them from express
processing and then save work to initiate express processing.
 Cascade Receipt
The Cascade function facilitates the distribution of a given quantity of an item from a single
supplier across multiple shipments and distributions. This function is available in the Receipts
window if you have specified or inferred a source and an item in the Find Expected Receipts
window.
 Unordered Receipt
You can receive items from a supplier when there is no corresponding purchase order but want to
receive the items so it can be tracked them on the system while you wait for a buyer to decide which
purchase order to use.

First receive the items as Unordered Receipts in the Receipts window. You can create a new receipt or
add to an existing receipt for the supplier who shipped the unordered items. Then perform a standard
receipt for the unordered item shipment quantity
Enter Qty, UOM, Item, and Location & save the record.(Note down the Receipt no generated at
header )
Create PO as per required.

detail from LOV and save the record.

complete the transaction.
 PO Receipt
This the normal type of receiving transaction performed to receive material against existing
purchasing document.

reports and can be tracked for any deviations.

Click on Ok, save the record and wait till RTP gets completed in normal.
Requiery the PO to do final receiving transaction.
1. First line is the Qty which is rejected in previous stage.
2. Second line is accepted Qty, since there are multiple destination types defined in PO
distributions, we can see the same split in receiving transaction form.
3. For Inventory Items, provide the Subinventory & Locator details.

Once RTP is completed, check the material transaction from receiving transaction summary.
