Goods Receipt (GRN)

The Goods Receipt Note (GRN) module in IntoAEC helps construction companies, architects, and engineering companies track the physical arrival of materials at project sites. It ensures that delivered quantities match approved Purchase Orders (POs) and maintains accurate inventory and cost control.

GRN acts as the critical bridge between Procurement and Inventory Management.


How to Access Goods Receipt

  1. Navigate to Clients/Projects from the main sidebar.

  2. Select the relevant project.

  3. Click on Procurement.

  4. Select Goods Receipt to open the GRN dashboard


How Materials Appear in the GRN Module

Materials enter the Goods Received section through two primary channels:

1️) Add from PO

Once a Purchase Order (PO) is approved, select Add from PO.The approved items are queued for receiving.These items automatically reflect in the Goods Received tab 

2️) Inventory Requests

When materials are requested from existing stock,the request is converted into a Goods Received Note to track internal movement to the project site.
