A drop-ship purchase order assigned to a job or service call in the back office. This creates a committed cost on the job or service call. A technician is able to receive all or part of this drop-ship purchase order when completing the job or service appointment. Note that the technician will need to sync the device after the drop-ship purchase order has been created. After the technician receives the drop-ship purchase order and syncs the device, the drop-ship purchase order receipt is sent back to the server. To process the receipt, the purchasing batch MOBILEYYMMDD (year, month, day) will need to be posted from the Purchasing Batch Entry window.

Receive items in MobileTech from a Drop-Ship Purchase Order

After drop-ship purchase orders are committed for a job or service call, you can use the PO Receipts pane to receive items from purchase orders. You can also receive partial shipments.

Choose Appointments. Select an appointment and choose Complete.
Choose the PO Receipts tab to display the receipts that are processed and assigned to the appointment. (Processed receipts are not editable.)
To view all receipts available for the service call or job, but not assigned to the appointment or processed, choose the Refresh icon in the top right corner. These receipts will be available on your device until you sync the device.
Select an unprocessed purchase order receipt to open the PO Receipt pane. (An unprocessed receipt displays as Processed: No.)

Enter information in these fields, as necessary.

Field	Description
PO Number	The purchase order number for the job appointment. You can't change this value.

*Required field

Choose the Receipt Detail bar to display the PO Receipts line detail list, where the line items are displayed for the purchase order receipt.
- To receive all items for all line items, choose Receive All to mark the Received checkbox for each line.
- To receive items for only one line, select the line and toggle Received to Yes.
If the quantity of items that was delivered differs from the quantity that was originally on the purchase order, you can change the value in the Quantity field to reflect the number of items that were delivered. The number of delivered items can be less, the same, or more than is indicated on the purchase order.

After the purchase order receipt is synced, you can't change the quantity. To process the remainder of the items, you must again choose the PO Receipt tab and choose the sync icon to view the purchase order and receive the remainder of the order.
Choose the Save icon.
On the next device sync, the receipt is sent to the back office.
