NOTE: There could be a "Receive on approval" of Order or Invoice in voyager.
JIRA:
Use cases:
In Voyager users are able to trigger a "Receive on approval". Meaning all items that are expected for the order being paid for are marked as received when the invoice is approved.
- At the point of review, users may also choose to receive all items as the reviewer may be closer to the receipt process. In some workflows, the approver would look at the invoice after the items have been received.
- Shelf ready data coming in will update inventory records, so we are just looking to mark the pieces as received so no one needs to go through the receiving workflow
- When loading EDIFACT invoices or MARC invoicing data, user may want to indicate that related items should be considered received on approval of the invoice.
Workflow 1 - TBD
Add toggle to approval confirmation modal that allows user to indicate they would like all pieces set to received.
Once user clicks confirm the POL Payment and receipt statuses would be changed to Fully paid and Fully received respectively.
This could result in the order being closed automatically
Advantages:
- Decision can be made on approval
- Could implement a specific permission for receive on approval
Workflow 2 - TBD
Add toggle to invoice lines that allows user to indicate they would like all pieces for POL to be received when invoice transitions to approved.
This toggle will display in invoice line information in the view pane
Advantages:
- Could work well in combination with integrations like EDIFACT - allow profiles to be set as receive on approval
- Control related POLs independently even though they appear on one invoice
