Ah nuts, I received the wrong PO

Scenario: Joe Parts-Counter gets a fresh load of widgets off the loading dock and decides to help receiving out by doing their paperwork. Oh, Joe… we appreciate the effort but make sure you receive the correct PO!

Too late.

There’s a quick fix to right Joe’s wrong. In this scenario we assume that the PO was received but none of the stock was allocated. If stock was allocated we have a slightly more complicated situation to deal with and we’ll cover that in a later article.

First, make manual stock adjustments to reset the stock receipt for each item put into stock.

Next, reference venture-scripts/fixup/PODueInFixup.php

Run the program with the proper po header ID reference:

./PODueInFixup.php po_header_id

That script will reset the received quantities on the PO to zero and readjust the due-in counts in the item_warehouse_master.

The PO is now ready to be received when the actual order arrives!

OK Joe, back to the sales counter.
