Progressive Receiving

Receive Partial PO and view Qty remaining

Often suppliers fulfill your purchase orders across multiple shipments. When receiving partial against a purchase order you want a bill to be created for the received inventory and the PO to stay open until it has been fully received. That way you can properly recognize inventory and understand what is still in transit from your supplier.

How to show a partial receipt of a purchase order

Here’s how you can receive partial (Progressive Receiving) in QuickBooks without having to manually expense portions of the PO.

1. Start by purchasing inventory from your vendor. Purchase Orders, Expenses, Bills, and Checks can be imported.

2. The PO/Expense/Bill is synced into the receiving page in DataNinja. When any part of the order arrives you can receive against the order line items.
