Receive inventory on PO and update On-hand qty

[Reed]

I received an order and recorded it using the original PO number. PT brought in the items, I updated the qty rec'd, but my On-Hand qty didn't change. How do I get that to happen.
I've paid for the order and everything else regarding the order is correct.

If you use "Receive Inventory" and save it it should work. This is what I do. I am not sure if you are missing this step.

When I receive a shipment I update the PO to match the invoice adding the shipping cost. I also print the PO which I use for a record and keep in a suspense file.

Then I go to Receive Inventory, find the vendor and load the PO. I use the Ship menu item to set the qty received. I put in the invoice number. I change the date to the invoice date (so that the date the payment is due is correct). Then I save. At this point the quantity on hand is updated. You may have to refresh the screen to see it or check an individual item.

The Item Quantity On Hand Amount represents the calculated value through the last day of the open or current Accounting Period.

If you receive a Purchase Order using a date that is in a future accounting period then the QTY On Hand will not change until you update the current period to reflect the same date range in which the PO was received.
