Introduction: PO Receiving (RF-01)

Overview

The PO Receiving system in Tyler is used to record the merchandise that has been received by your company

Your RF Scanner can be used for three tasks in the PO Receiving process:

  • Recording merchandise that has been received on a purchase order.
  • Scanning items to acknowledge that they have been put away.
  • Inquiring on a purchase order.
IMPORTANT: The rest of the selections required to complete the Purchase Order process are run from the Purchase Orders menu (04) in Tyler, not the RF Scanner (Purchase Order Entry, Warehouse and Vendor Copies, Audit and Update).

The RF PO Receiving Process

A brief description of Tyler’s Purchase Orders process is included below.

REMEMBER: Only certain steps can be performed with the RF Scanner. Some parts of the process still need to be completed using the Purchase Orders application (04) in the main system. To avoid confusion, at the end of each step, we specify where the action should be performed. If the step must be completed in the Purchase Orders application in the main system, [MAIN SYSTEM] appears. If the step is completed with the RF Scanner, [RF SCANNER] appears.
