Receivers
Receivers record what physically happened after a PO was sent. They confirm accepted delivery, reject delivery when it should not be accepted, and add the evidence needed to make the order history reliable.
Receiving work happens in Orders. The original PR or RFQ can explain why the order exists, but the order is where fulfillment is tracked.
Basic Concepts
Receiving updates the PO's delivery state. It is not a comment, note, or informal confirmation.
Delivery History is the record of what was accepted or rejected. It is how Grinea calculates remaining quantities and explains later order state.
Receiving Work
Use Receive Delivery when delivered items or services should be accepted against the PO. The receiver records quantities, proof, and any required supporting details before submitting.
For material lines, receiving usually means accepted quantities and proof of delivery. For service lines, the service receiving path captures the completed service work.
Partial delivery is normal. Receiving part of an order should update the remaining quantity instead of forcing the PO to close.
Rejected Delivery
Use Reject Delivery when the delivery should not be accepted. The reason and evidence matter because rejection becomes part of the order's history and may drive supplier follow-up.
Rejecting delivery is different from closing the PO. Rejection records a delivery event that failed. Closing stops further fulfillment work on an eligible partial order.
Delivery Deposits
Delivery Deposit is used when material remains at the supplier but needs to count in delivery tracking. It captures deposited quantities, warehouse information, and required documents.
Receivers should read deposits as part of the delivery picture, not as a normal received delivery. The material has been accounted for, but it has not moved through the same physical receiving action.
Boundaries
Receivers do not select suppliers, approve requests, publish RFQs, or prepare POs. Their work starts after the order exists and supplier delivery needs to be recorded.
Their role is to make fulfillment state trustworthy. If the delivery history is accurate, Buyers and Project Managers can understand what remains open without asking for side-channel updates.
