Where it usually breaks
And how to keep it from happening.
- A supplier may deliver less than ordered. The remaining approved quantity should remain open without inventing stock.
- Accepted, rejected and pending portions must sum to the recorded arrival; only accepted stock can become available.
- A second bill cannot use the same accepted receipt quantity. Keep its match reservation and original accrual.
- An order amendment needs renewed authority over cumulative increases, even if another line is reduced.
