Receive Partial PO
A PO will be put in Partial status when fewer items are received than are on the PO.
When you are receiving a purchase order, and you enter less quantity in the Quantity Received box than is on the PO, the system will automatically uncheck the PO Complete box.
If you intend to receive less than the PO, and you wish to mark the PO as closed, then you will need to manually mark the PO Complete box after entering your quantities. If the PO Complete box is left unchecked, the PO will have the status of Partial.
If you want to mark an existing Partial PO as complete, you can add a new receipt for the PO with 0 quantities in all Quantity Received boxes, and then check the PO Complete box.
