Receipt History report

The Receipt History report shows items that you have ordered and have received. This report is organized by item, and then by supplier. So, if you have ordered one item from two suppliers, the report includes a line for each vendor. Each line in the report also includes other information such as the transaction that increased the quantity, when the quantity was received, the quantity received, and so on.

The transactions that are displayed have transaction definitions that increase ONHAND quantity—either Quantity only or Quantity & Value.

You can filter the list for combinations of suppliers, items, and document dates.

    Customize and run

    If you want to see every result for a particular category, don't make selections from any of the data entry boxes. If you run the report without entering any search filters, the report might take a long time to run and return too many results do be useful.

    Before running the report, you can select the time period and types of items to include as well as specify how you want the report to appear.

    1. Select the reporting period from the dropdown menu, or enter the start and end dates you want the report to cover.  If you do not specify a reporting period, the system generates a report for the current month to date.
      • You can specify either the reporting period or the start and end dates, but not both.
    2. Set the filters to get the specific data you want.
      • Filters enable you to include or exclude specific types of data in the report, such as customer, item, UPC, value, or account. As a general rule, to get fewer and more precise results in your report, set more filters.
    3. Format the report.
      • Format options will vary from report to report. Generally, you can set the layout of the report and arrange how to group and display the data contained in the report.
    4. Enter a title, subtitle, and footer text for your report.
