IV- Partial delivery
1. A copy of the purchase order form is kept at the Receiving department until the delivery is completed or it becomes clear that delivery of the remainder is impossible.
2. When partial delivery is made, a copy of the purchase order form is marked “partial delivery”. The received quantity is deducted from the total quantity ordered and the delivery date is recorded on the purchase order. Once delivery of all goods is complete, a copy of the order form is marked “complete“, attached to the delivery slip, and then sent to Ac- counts Payable.
