Receiving Overview

Important! This option is only for libraries with separate Invoicing and Receiving.

 

In Online Selection & Acquisitions (OSA), the Receive option on the Admin menu provides system administrators, or users with the appropriate Administrative permissions, the ability to manage Packing Slips.

 

This option is available only to users with the Separate Invoicing and Receiving feature selected in the Library System Information dialog.  This dialog is accessed by selecting Library System under the Library Information section of the Administration (ADMIN) menu.
