Definition

Goods

Receipt

A Goods Receipt (GR) is a goods movement with which the receipt of

goods from a vendor or from production is posted.

A goods receipt leads to an increase in warehouse stock.

All transactions that bring about a change in stock are entered real time

in SAP R/3.

Stock is updated real time at the time of posting of a goods receipt.

Goods receipts are processed against the open purchase order quantity.

The open purchase order quantity is the quantity still to be delivered for

an ordered item.It is calculated as the difference between the quantity ordered and the

quantity delivered to date.

The movement type in SAP R/3 system is a three digit key used to

differentiate between goods movements. Examples of such goods

movements are goods receipts, goods issues, or transfer posting.
