Goods in, counted, and reconciled against the invoice

Every incoming consignment counted, photographed and matched against the supplier's invoice — with the gap recorded and settled by voucher, not forgotten.

The short shipment nobody's job is to catch

A supplier short-ships two cartons on a large consignment.

Receiving, in most godowns, is unloading. The comparing — what arrived against what was billed — happens rarely, late, or never.

The old way1

Unloaded in a hurry

boxes to the racks, invoice to accounts

Nobody compares them

because spotting it is nobody's job

Real money, unnoticed

at the moment everyone is busiest

That gap is invisible precisely because it costs you at the moment everyone is busiest.

Two missing cartons used to be nobody's job. Now they are the system's.
Illustrative view. The voucher number ties the godown record to the books.

A receipt opens with the consignment's facts: party, boxes per the document, transporter, docket number — with the invoice and docket photographed straight onto the record.

Box numbers, per line

So the record can show that one carton holds more than one item — the way a mixed consignment actually arrives.

Or box count, per line

Thousands of sets of hinges in one line, without anyone typing hundreds of numbers. Chosen line by line, not for the whole receipt.

Pauses and resumes

Lunch, a shift change, a second truck. Unglamorous — and it decides whether the module survives a busy day.

Counts for the same item accumulate across entries, each entry drillable with who and when.

Received against billed, settled by voucher

When counting is done, the desk or accounts matches received quantities against the supplier's invoice — typed in, or imported in bulk from the ERP's purchase entry, which the system understands because the items are already mapped.

Until then, the discrepancy stays visible — on the incomplete list, and highlighted on your dashboard, because two missing cartons are real money and now spotting them is the system's job.

What this page does not cover

Goods coming back from your own channel — returns, defects, warranty swaps — arrive through the same mechanics but follow different commercial logic, and have their own page.

Every receipt leaves a stamp

Opened, counted, paused, resumed, reviewed, settled — who and when, to the minute, with the invoice and docket images attached.

Nobody wrote this. Each line is the act of doing the work.
Illustrative view. Times are to the minute, and no line can be edited after the fact.

The act itself makes the stamp.

The truck leaves, and the numbers agree

Every consignment counted the way it actually unloads, matched against what was billed, and closed only when the money side and the godown side say the same thing.

Receive one real consignment and let the gap show itself.
