Partially receive a PO

How to partially receive products on a purchase order

It’s easy to receive a partial shipment from your vendor in inFlow Cloud! Each line of your order has its own receiving button. This way, you can receive some items instead of all at once.

Web

To partially receive

  1. Open your order and move to the Receive tab at the top.
  2. Click into the Item field in this tab and list the items you are receiving.
  3. Make any changes to quantities (for instance if you ordered 50 units of the item but only received 20).
  4. Save the order. You can go back to the main Purchasing tab to see the changes.

You’ll see that your lines will have a filled-in circle icon beside it (Received), and some of them will have a non-filled-in circle (Ordered). The order will remain open and you can return to it later to receive the rest of your items by clicking on the non-filled in circle icon and selecting Received.
