Business Benefits
This enhancement allows users to view any/all exceptions when the actual stock received differs from expected values and then take appropriate actions to determine why exception(s) exist (e.g. determine if additional stock has or will arrive, etc.).
Note: For related documentation and workflows, see RE - Receipt Entry.
Usage

Note: Exceptions refer to any of the following scenarios when the actual and expected values do not match including:
- Quantities
- Weights
