• For parts received against a PO, if Inspection Type is Self or By Inspector in the PO.

The accepted goods are moved to warehouses that requested or need parts. The rejected and quarantined goods are sent back to the supplier.

The quantities that have been accepted or rejected cannot be modified if the inspection is confirmed. For quarantine parts inspection cannot be confirmed until the quarantined quantity is accepted or rejected .However, you can reverse inspection later, if the received goods have not been moved to the warehouse after inspection.

If the receipt is associated with a customer order/repair order, the UOM conversion factor is set as 1.00. for the part.
