You must first use the Approval Groups window to establish rules for your approval groups.
Then you can assign approval groups to positions in this window.
Enter the Action for receipt date control - Determines how Purchasing handles receipts that are earlier or
later than the allowed number of days selected above. Choose one of the following options:
Reject - Purchasing does not permit receipts outside the selected number of days early or late.
Warning - Purchasing displays a warning message but permits receipts outside the selected
number of days early or late.
Purchasing displays the Last Accept Date, which is the last date when the shipment can be received.
This is the promised date plus the number of days late allowed.
Enter the Action for Overreceipt Quantity control. This field determines how Purchasing handles receipts
that exceed the quantity received tolerance. Choose one of the following options:
Reject - Purchasing does not permit receipts that exceed the selected tolerance.
Warning - Purchasing displays a warning message but permits receipts that exceed the selected
tolerance.
Select Allow Substitute Receipts to indicate that receivers can receive substitute items in
place of ordered items. You must define substitute items before you can receive them. See:
Defining Item Relationships, Oracle Inventory User's Guide
Enter the default Receipt Routing that you assign goods: Direct Delivery, Inspection
Required, or Standard Receipt. You can override this routing during receipt by changing the
destination type, if the RCV: Allow Routing Override user profile option is enabled.
Enter the Enforce Ship To location option to determine whether the receiving location must
be the same as the ship-to location:
None - The receiving location may differ from the ship-to location.
Reject - Purchasing does not permit receipts when the receiving location differs from
the ship-to location.
Warning - Purchasing displays a warning message but permits receipts when the
receiving location differs from the ship-to location.
