In this example, we have created a purchase order, added line items and copies, and activated the purchase order. We will create an invoice from the purchase order, receive items, and invoice them. We will receive the items in batch from the invoice.

1) Retrieve a purchase order.

2) Click Create Invoice.

3) The blank invoice appears. In the top half of the invoice, enter descriptive information about the invoice. In the bottom half of the invoice, enter the number of items for which you were invoiced, the amount that you were billed, and the amount that you paid.

4) Click Save. You must choose a save option before you can receive items.

5) The screen refreshes. In the top right corner of the screen, click Receive Items.

6) The Acquisitions Invoice Receiving screen opens. By default, this screen enables users to receive items in batch, or Numeric Mode. You can select the number of copies that you want to receive; you are not receiving specific copies in this mode.

7) Select the number of copies that you want to receive. By default, the number that you invoiced will appear. In this example, we will receive one copy of each title.
