Join nowI'm needing to know to correct an item receipt after an error has occurred. For example, On my PO I ordered 20 of an item. When doing the Item Receipt I accidentally entered the quantity as 20 instead of what was shipped which was 17 of the item. After I notice the mistake I went into the Vendor Center and found the correct Item Receipt and change the quantity from 20 to 17. When I went to the PO it showed that all 20 of the item was received that line was closed.
So how do I correct the receiving error to show 17 received with a back order of 3 remaining?
Thanks
