- If a default packing slip is not provided by the user on the header of the invoice, and the Require Packing Slip and Auto-Assign Packing Slip Numbers check boxes are selected on the Configure Receiving Settings screen, Costpoint defaults the packing slip based on the auto-assign packing slips option selected on the Configure Receiving Settings screen:

- Last Packing Slip No: Costpoint automatically assigns the next packing slip to the voucher (Last Packing Slip No + 1) based on the Last Packing Slip No in Configure Receiving Settings. If that number has already been used (for example, when manually added), Costpoint retrieves the next number. The Last Packing Slip No in Configure Receiving Settings is also updated with the new value.
The default receipt ID is determined using the following:
- If a default receipt ID is provided by the user on the header of the invoice, Costpoint uses that value for creating the receiving information.
- If a default receipt ID is not provided by the user on the header of the invoice, and the
Auto-Assign Receipt IDs check box is selected on the Configure Receiving Settings screen, Costpoint defaults the receipt ID based on the auto-assign receipt ID option selected on the Configure Receiving Settings screen:
- PO Voucher Number: The receipts created will have the Receipt ID field auto-assigned with a value equal to the PO voucher number.
- Subcontractor Invoice Number: The receipts created will have the Receipt ID field auto-assigned with a value equal to the subcontractor invoice number on the PO voucher.
- Last PO Receipt ID: Costpoint automatically assigns the next receipt ID to the voucher (Last PO Receipt ID + 1) based on the Last PO Receipt ID in Configure Receiving Settings. If that number has already been used (for example, when manually added), Costpoint retrieves the next number. The Last PO Receipt ID in Configure Receiving Settings is also updated with the new value.
If the Auto-Assign Receipt IDs check box is cleared in Configure Receiving settings and you do not manually add a default receipt ID when approving an invoice that contains a three-way match PO line, an error will occur.
