Receiving Overview

The Receive section is where you check in deliveries. When orders arrive from your vendors, you mark them as received here — and Peasy updates your inventory automatically. No manual counting needed.

How Receiving Works

1. You create a purchase order (or items come in from a vendor).
2. The items show up as Pending in the Receive section — meaning they're expected but haven't arrived yet.
3. When the delivery arrives, you go to the Receive page and mark items as received.
4. Peasy updates your inventory at the selected location.

That's the whole flow. Buy → Wait → Receive → Inventory updated.

Two Views

The Receive page has two views, accessible from the sidebar or via tabs:

• Pending — Items that are on their way but haven't been received yet. This is your "what's coming in" list.
• Received (History) — A log of everything you've already received. Use this to look back at past deliveries.

Why It Matters

Without receiving, your inventory numbers would just be guesses. Every time you mark a delivery as received:

• On-hand inventory goes up by the received quantity
• The purchase order status updates (partially or fully received)
• An entry is logged in your Inventory History
• The pending alert for those items clears
