Select this option for the receipts created to have the Packing Slip No field auto-assigned with a value equal to the PO Voucher Number.

Select this option for the receipts created to have the receipt ID field auto-assigned with a value equal to the PO Voucher Number.
Select this option for the receipts created to have the receipt ID field auto-assigned with a value equal to the Subcontractor Invoice Number on the PO voucher.
Select this option for the receipts created to have the receipt ID field auto-assigned with a value equal to the Last PO Receipt ID + 1. The field is enabled if the Last PO Receipt ID is selected. If cleared, use standard validation to require last four numbers, if entered, in order to increment.
If a default receipt and warehouse are not provided, the system automatically assigns the next receipt ID (last PO receipt ID + 1) to the voucher, and also update the last PO receipt ID with the new value.
Subcontractor Agreement PO vouchers will ignore the Require Location for Non-Inventory Receipts option in Configure Receiving Settings. Receipts for this type of PO will not require a warehouse location.
These options are available only if you do not have Costpoint Inventory. If you do have Costpoint Inventory, you can auto-assign PO receipt IDs, inspection/MRB IDs, and vendor return IDs based on the warehouse ID in the Transaction IDs subtask of the Manage Warehouses screen.
If you do not use Costpoint Inventory, select this check box to have Costpoint automatically assign a receipt ID when adding a receipt to the Manage Purchase Order Receipts screen. Costpoint adds 1 to the Last PO Receipt ID. If this check box is not selected, you must manually enter a receipt ID.
If you selected the Auto-Assign Receipt IDs check box, you must enter the last receipt ID used up to 10 alphanumeric characters, before the system can generate new receipt IDs. The system increases the number of the last receipt by one. If you are not currently using a receiving system, the starting number for receipt IDs can be zero. If you manually assign an ID on the Manage Purchase Order Receipts screen, the number you enter does not update this field.
To have receipt IDs assigned in numeric order, you must select a ceiling number not to exceed 10 digits. For example, if the highest number desired is 9999999999, enter zero as 0000000000; or if the highest number desired is RC-9999 and the last receipt ID used was RC-124, enter that number as RC-0124.
The system-assigned receipt ID is always incremented from the right, and only if the rightmost character is numeric (rather than alphabetic). For example, RC594123 becomes RC594124; 97-01234 becomes 97-01235; and RC9999999A is not incremented.
If you do not have Costpoint Inventory, select this check box to automatically assign an ID when you add an inspection on the Manage Quality Control Inspections screen.

If you selected the Auto-Assign Inspection/MRB IDs check box, you must enter the last ID used up to 10 alphanumeric characters, before the system can generate new QC inspection/MRB IDs. The system increases the number of the last ID by one. You can still manually assign an ID, but the ID you enter does not update this field.
If you do not have Costpoint Inventory, select this check box to have the system automatically assign a vendor return ID when you add a return to the Manage Vendor Returns screen. The system adds 1 to the Last Vendor Return ID. If you do not select this check box, you must manually enter vendor return IDs when entering transactions.
If you selected the Auto-Assign Vendor Return IDs check box, you must enter the Last Vendor Return ID up to 10 alphanumeric characters, before the system can generate new return IDs. The system increases the number of the last return ID by one. You can manually assign an ID, but the ID you enter does not update this field.
