Program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, is used to enter and maintain purchasing receivers in one step. The system assigns numbers to the receivers, which can then be printed with program RERP, Receiver Print.
* Automatic numbering of receivers is determined by the setting of the Receiver Numbers Are Created from PO flag in program POPM, PO / Receiving Parameter Maintenance, or the numbering sequence set up in program SPAN, Auto Number Control. For more information, see program POPM, PO / Receiving Parameter Maintenance.
* Automatic closing of work orders, purchase orders, and receivers is controlled by the settings in program POPM, PO / Receiving Parameter Maintenance. See the program write up for more information.
Program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, allows you to both receive and move items to their proper destination. Orders received with program REEM, Receiver Entry/Maintenance, must be moved to the proper destination with program REMD, Move to Destination.
* Items that have the inspection required flag on the purchase order set to on, cannot be received with this program. This flag defaults from program ICMM, Inventory Master Maintenance, for the item.
* Comments for vendors and items entered in program ICMM, Inventory Master Maintenance, program VEQM, Vendor Quote Maintenance, and program VEMM, Vendor Master Maintenance, with the comment type RE or POR are displayed in this program.
* You can only receive orders for the plant to which your user ID is assigned in program SPDM, System User Default Maintenance.
* When the purchase order has the Drop Ship flag set to on and the purchase order line is assigned to a sales order line as its destination, the purchase order line cannot be received in program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, or program REEM, Receiver Entry/Maintenance, and must be shipped using program OESC, Shipping Confirmation.
When a quantity is received with this program, the quantity is moved to stock, and an item transaction log is written. This transaction is posted to the general ledger as a type E inventory transaction.
Items that are moved to a quarantine location in this program have return to vendor transactions automatically created for them in program RTVM, Return to Vendor Maintenance. For more information on returning inventory to vendors, see the documentation on program RTVM, Return to Vendor Maintenance.
When an item is received to a location for the first time, the default location for the item can be set to the new location according to the RCVG_UPDATES_DEFBIN in program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance. See Default Item Location Update through Purchase Receipts for more information.

Program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, can be set up to indicate that there is a demand for the item that you are receiving.
In program POPM, PO / Receiving Parameter Maintenance, set the Allow Visible Cues in REOM flag to the desired setting.
* When this flag is set to on, program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, will check the quantity available for the item. If the quantity available is negative, the program will brighten the indicator 
flag to the right of the line item to indicate that there is a demand for the item that is waiting for the purchase order.
* When this flag is set to off, program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, will give no visible sign that there is a demand waiting for the item to be received.
Comments for items can be set up so that they are always displayed when a receiver line is entered for the item. To have a comment displayed for receivers, enter the comment in program ICMM, Inventory Master Maintenance, with comment type RE. On the comments page, there is a flag with three settings: Silent (Normal), Show Indicator, and User must read.
* If the pop-list is set to Silent (Normal), the comment is written to the receiver as normal, but there is no indication to the user.
* If the pop-list is set to Show Indicator, the comment is written to the receiver, and an indicator flag 
is displayed to the right of the line item to indicate that comments exist for the receiver line.
* For receiver line comments with the flag set to User must read, the comment is written to the receiver, the indicator is displayed, and when the line item is committed, the program will display the comment page.
When a receipt is entered for a purchase order that is assigned to a work order created from a sales order, the quantity is received to the work order stock area and bin location entered in program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance. If no work order stock area and bin have been entered in program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance, the items are received to the default receiving locations from program ILPM, Plant Code Maintenance.
* See the Purchasing Model Components for Model Work Orders section for more information.
* See program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance, for this setup information.
* Purchasing cost for these items is transferred to the work order.
If all purchase orders for the work order have been fully received and closed, the work order can be automatically closed according to the settings in program POPM, PO / Receiving Parameter Maintenance.
* If a purchase order line is closed short, the work order will not be closed automatically. The quantity complete for the purchase order line must be equal to or greater than the quantity ordered.
If the work order is automatically closed from the receiving program, the components' inventory in the work order receiving area will be decremented. The finished item will be received to the work order stock area and bin location. If no value is found in program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance, the finished item will be received to its default area from program ICEM, Item Plant Maintenance.
The sales order line preferred pick area and bin will be updated to match the finished good receiving location. The quantity complete for the work order is calculated based on the quantity received for the components for the parent item. The quantity complete is calculated as the maximum quantity of the parent item that can be built with the quantity issued for all of the components. If all components are backflushed, then the quantity complete will be the quantity ordered on the work order.

* For more information on auto-vouchering, see the Automatic Vouchering of Receipts section.
11. You can change the Inv Destination pop-list, if desired. The item quantity can be sent to Stock or Floorstock
* Stock: Valid stock items are located by area and bin location. Non-stock items are recorded, but have no effect on inventory records.
* Floor: When floorstock is designated, the system creates two transactions. First, the item is moved into its default stock location, then it is moved back out of its default location and into floorstock.
* WIP: Purchased services are always moved to WIP. Stock and non-stock items can be moved to WIP, but only if a valid work order was assigned to the item during purchase order entry. The work order must be status O - Open for receipts to be entered. You cannot change the Inv Destination pop-list from WIP to Stock or Floorstock for service purchase order lines.
12. In the Reason Cd field, if you are moving the quantity to a quarantine location, you must enter a reason code. Reason codes are entered in program RERM, Reject/Scrap Reason Code Maintenance.
13. Press [Commit]. Repeat until all desired purchase order lines are received.
* As receiver lines are committed, updated receipt data is immediately available for query within the program itself.
14. If the quantity was distributed among general ledger account numbers in program POEM, P.O. Entry/Maintenance, you must receive each quantity separately.
* For example, if the quantity ordered was 10, and it was distributed evenly to two general ledger accounts, the each distributed quantity of 5 would have to be received on separate receiver lines.
If the quantity was distributed among multiple plants in program POEM, P.O. Entry/Maintenance, the quantity must be received within the plant to which it was distributed.
* For example, if an order for 500 was distributed as 250 to plant 10 and 250 to plant 20, the person receiving the order would have to be logged in to plant 10 (in program SPDM, System User Default Maintenance) to receive 250 assigned the that plant. The user would not be able to receive the 250 assigned to plant 20 unless the user logged into plant 20 (in program SPDM, System User Default Maintenance).
This also means that if an amount greater than the distributed amount was sent to one plant, the extra amount could not be applied to the distribution amount for another plant.
* For example, suppose the order was for 500, with the distribution as 250 to plant 10 and 250 to plant 20, and the order was only partially sent as 300 to plant 10. The extra 50 units could not be applied to plant 20 as they cannot be received there.
15. If you are auto-shipping receipts for sales orders, and you are manually receiving the line items, the auto-shipping will occur when the receiver line is committed. See the Receipts for Sales Orders section for more information.
Internal supply purchase orders received with program REOM, One Step Receiver Entry/Maintenance, are subject to the following restrictions:
* The sales order must be status S - Confirmed Complete.
* The purchase order cannot contain controlled items.
* The purchase order cannot have distribution detail.
* The resulting receiver detail lines and quantities will match the sales order shipment.
* The receiver cannot be maintained manually.
* If the REOM_INT_SO_REQD parameter in program MURM, Initialization Parameter Maintenance, is set to Y, receipt of internal supply purchase orders requires receipt of entire sales order shipment.
1. In the Init field, enter your initials.
2. In the Internal Sls Order field, enter the internal supplier sales order number being received.
3. Enter the sales order suffix for the internal supplier sales order.
4. Press [Commit].
