The CLT “Receive products” activities require verifying shipments against ordering documents. The packing list (or ASN detail) is checked against the purchase order to confirm that the items, quantities, and units of measure received match what was ordered and authorized. This verification step underpins inventory and financial accuracy and precedes acceptance, staging, and putaway. Matching a packing list to an invoice is an accounting three-way match task, not a receiving floor responsibility. Selecting carriers or determining how much to purchase are procurement/transport decisions made before arrival. By aligning received quantities with the PO, the warehouse ensures correct receipts, initiates discrepancy handling for shortages/overages, and updates inventory records accordingly.
