How to Book In Goods Without a Purchase Order
If you wish to book stock into the system without actually raising a Purchase Order, or Stock Adjustment, then you can simply create a Goods Received Note. To do this, go to
Purchases > Enter Goods Received
When the GRN screen opens, simply fill in the details manually (opposed to automatically when created from a Purchase Order). Enter the Supplier details, the Depot for the Stock Store that the parts should be booked into, Part Number(s). Alternatively, you can simply begin adding a Part record and Protean will automatically pull through the Preferred Supplier details from the Stock Record.
Note: You can only add parts to the Goods Received Note for a single given supplier.
Once you have all the records in place, enter their respective quantities and then simply click ‘Book In’ to complete.
