Negative Receipts (RNPC/RNIM) are a reversal to a receipt or RPPC/RPIM transaction. The two main processing steps for negative receipts are
Assignment
and Validation
.These steps are performed within the
Negative Receipt Assignment
screen, which can be accessed by choosing Negative Receipt Information
from the Assignment
menu.The grid within this screen displays all negative receipts. To reverse a negative receipt, you must be able to supply the respective import documentation number (i.e. 214).

Negative LOOKBACK PERIOD
You have the option to edit the number of days the system could look back to find an eligible receipt to match a negative receipt to back out. The default lookback period is 15 days. Clicking “Edit” will open the confirmation pop-up.

- Open the confirmation pop-up clickingEdit.importantIt is not recommended to update an e214 older than 15 days.
- Enter the new number of days and clickUpdate.

The new number of days will be considered to match the negative receipts for the next assignment and FIFO processing execution. After FIFO is finalized, the look back period is automatically updated back to default value of 15 days.
Negative Receipt Assignment
- Choose a negative receipt and clickEditon the far left. A grid containing all receipts (RPPCs/RPIMs) matching the negative receipt’s product number will appear at the bottom of the screen.

- Assign an Adjustment Receipt Document ID (Adj Receipt Doc ID) and clickFill. Repeat as needed until all receipts have been assigned.
- The receipts (RPPCs/RPIMs) must match on status code and country of origin to be assigned to the negative receipts. If the receipts do not match, theFilllink will be disabled.

- If there are no matching receipts, the below message will appear below the grid:

Negative Receipt Validation
After all negative receipt transactions have been assigned an Adjustment Receipt Document ID, the quantities must be validated to confirm there is sufficient inventory in the receipt layers to process the negative receipts.
To begin validation, click
Validate
.
If there is sufficient inventory in stock (difference is zero or greater), a
Validation Successful
message will appear on the screen. In the validation grid, the negative receipt detail will be shown. Details include the:- Negative Receipt Quantity
- FIFO Positive Quantity
- Current Inventory Quantity
- Receipt Staging Quantity
The difference between the total available receipt quantity and the negative receipt quantity is shown in the
Current Difference
column. If the difference on a receipt is a negative number, validation will fail for that particular receipt assignment. Failed validations will highlight in yellow.
If no inventory is shown to reverse, you can move the negative receipt (RNPC/RNIM) transaction back to staging. This can be done by using the
Special Processing
screen under the Preparation
menu.Moving a Negative Receipt (RNPC) Transaction Back to Staging
