> - **Time savings**: Centralized and fast recording of received products.
> - **Guaranteed traceability**: Direct link with the expected receipt.
> - **Flexibility**: Ability to receive goods product by product or all at once.

### 2. Prerequisites✔️:

- Available from the **Premium + pack**.
- Requires the use of a PDA with the Shippingbo application installed.
- Works **only** for stock management in a **simple** warehouse (excluding advanced warehouse).

### 3. How does receiving via an expected receipt work?

The feature lets you receive goods by linking the operation to an expected receipt previously created in Shippingbo. This ensures that incoming stock is correctly associated with the original expected receipt, making logistics tracking easier.

*Example:* "If you enable this feature, each product added to stock will automatically be linked to an existing expected receipt, allowing complete tracking of the operation."

 

### 4. How do you carry out a goods receipt linked to an expected receipt?

#### 4.1 On the Shippingbo interface

From the side menu, go to the menu **Configurations** -\> **Logistics** -\> **Expected receipt,** then check the option **Receive all goods at once** if you want an automatic global receipt:

#### 4.2 On the PDA

- Go to the menu **Goods receipt** -\> **Receipt session:**

### ![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-02-2025-07-28-39-2314-AM.png?width=302&height=301&name=image-png-May-02-2025-07-28-39-2314-AM.png)

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-02-2025-07-30-31-4908-AM.png?width=301&height=288&name=image-png-May-02-2025-07-30-31-4908-AM.png)

- Scan the reference of the expected receipt:

- Create the session:

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/attderec-png.png?width=340&height=335&name=attderec-png.png)

- Add the products manually or click on **Receive all goods** (if enabled):

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-02-2025-07-37-18-8760-AM.png?width=345&height=340&name=image-png-May-02-2025-07-37-18-8760-AM.png)

 

**💡 Tip:** 

This step of selecting the button **Add stock** can be skipped automatically via the option ***Skip the intermediate page in a receipt session*** in Configurations\>Logistics\>PDA:

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Feb-12-2026-10-33-07-9996-AM.png?width=670&height=194&name=image-png-Feb-12-2026-10-33-07-9996-AM.png)

- Once all the products of the expected receipt have been scanned, **log out** of the session:

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-02-2025-07-49-45-4550-AM.png?width=352&height=305&name=image-png-May-02-2025-07-49-45-4550-AM.png)

📢 **Warning:**

If the products have a **Best-Before Date** or a **lot number**, the global receipt option will be **automatically disabled**. The target location must also be of type **multi-product.**

**💡 Tip:**

If you need to manage expected receipts containing only 1 product in a quantity of 1, the option ***Do not scan the product when receiving an expected receipt with a single quantity*** lets you skip the product scan step in Configurations\>Logistics\>PDA:

![](https://knowledge.shippingbo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Feb-12-2026-10-52-18-3533-AM.png?width=670&height=218&name=image-png-Feb-12-2026-10-52-18-3533-AM.png)

 

 

### 5. Practical example

You are an e-merchant in the cosmetics sector. You have just received an expected delivery of 5 references. By scanning the expected receipt with your PDA, you can add each product to stock smoothly, without data loss or re-entry.

 

 

**⚒️ Recommendation:** 

Before fully using the feature described in this tutorial, we strongly recommend running **a test phase** with your own settings to check that the result matches your expectations. As the customer remains **fully responsible** for the actions carried out in the Shippingbo account, these tests are essential to use the tool with complete peace of mind.
