# Create a receiving slip

Receiving slips are created automatically during the process of receiving assets. You can also create receiving slips manually.

## Before you begin

Role required: procurement\_admin or procurement\_user

## About this task

After a receiving slip has been created for a purchase order, all fields on the purchase order record are changed to read-only.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Procurement** > **Receiving** > **Receiving Slips**.

2.  Click **New**.

    A **Number** is assigned automatically. The current date and time is added automatically to the **Received** field.

3.  Select a **Purchase Order**.

    Only purchase orders with a status of **Ordered**, **Pending Delivery**, or **Requested** are listed in the selection window. The **Vendor** column lists the vendor specified on the purchase order. The **Ship to** column lists the destination stockroom specified on the purchase order.

4.  Select a **Receiving Stockroom**.

5.  Click **Submit**.


## What to do next

Add a receiving slip line to the receiving slip to identify the items from the purchase order that were received.
