When you have received all the
ordered against an item on PO , the receipts
are completed, and the receipt completed checkbox get checked. If you want to
short-close a PO, then you can use “Complete Receipts” action item available in
PO application. This action item will check receipt
completed checkbox and will not allow further receipts against the PO.
However, if there is a successive return transaction, receipt completed checkbox gets unchecked and the PO again opens up for further receipt.
