Select from another Number Series
- The number of the Goods Receipt: FirstOffice will enter the next unused number from the number sequence specified in the Number Series Defaults setting or from the first number sequence entered in the Number Series - Goods Receipts setting. You may change this number, but not to one that has already been used.
- Trans. Date
- Paste Special
Choose date
- The date of the receipt. The default value is the current date.
- If you are using the FIFO stock valuation method, either in the Stock List or in the Nominal Ledger, you must make certain that you enter all stock transactions in strict chronological order. Failure to do this may cause your FIFO values to become incorrect. Do not, for example, enter a Goods Receipt with yesterday's date if you have already entered one with today's. It is also recommended that you always approve Goods Receipts when you save them for the first time. Do not, for example, go back to an earlier unapproved Goods Receipt and approve it if there are later approved ones, unless you change the date as well.
