Internal Material Inward
Menu path: Store -> Operations -> Internal Material Inward
To go back to the Search screen, click Internal Material Inward next to Welcome at the top-right corner of the page.
Internal Material Inward records the receipt of material sent from another plant through an Internal Material Order. It works like Purchase/GRN Inward, but it receives against a Material Order instead of a Supplier PO, so it has no supplier, invoice or tax details.
Prerequisites​
- An Internal Material Order must be submitted for the receiving (delivery) plant, with status Open or Partially Received.
- The user needs Purchase/GRN Inward write access to add or edit inwards.
