Preparation of the Daily Receiving Report
Receiving staff should prepare a daily receiving report after completing all receiving operations for the day. A typical receiving report is divided into food, beverage, and other, under which direct purchase goods and inventory items are separately recorded. The reported information is based on the delivery slips which are matched with purchase orders and received goods.
V- Receiving accounting
The Accounts Payable function is activated when goods are received, and after the requisition and purchase order have been checked to ensure that the delivered items agree to those ordered.
"Direct Purchase” goods are expensed when received. Goods that are stored should be taken to the storeroom immediately and are accounted for as inventory. Inventories are expensed when they are issued from the storeroom based on inventory requisitions.
