Arrivals Overview
SapphireOne Arrivals provides an overview of all recorded incoming inventory arrivals that can be processed and allocated based on the recorded outstanding order vendor invoice (OVI). This allows users to monitor the status of orders, in terms of order type, expected receipt date, arrival value, order value and all other fields contained within the table. A SapphireOne user also has the ability to drill down and inspect the contents of an order. Each order can contain multiple different inventory items that can have their own unique arrival date. The user has the ability to put a customised status on each order and each one of these columns can be sorted by any of the available fields within the order vendor invoice
These columns may be sorted by clicking on the column headings. Shift Click will reverse the sort order.
This feature is located at both Inventory > Purchases > Arrivals & Job Projects > Costs > Arrivals.

- Order Ex Tax – The total dollar value of the order minus tax will be shown here
- 100% Column – Selecting this column tells SapphireOne that that all of the goods have been delivered over-riding the Back Order status for the selected OVI. The value of the order will be moved in to the Arrive value column. As may be seen for the highlighted item above the Arrive Value will now match the Order Value.
- 9% – This indicates that an order has partially arrived and there is still inventory on backorder.

Setting the Quantities that are Arriving:
From the conversion screen the second transaction is highlighted and has been 100% ticked. Note that the full Order Value is entered into the Arrival Value column.
Now we will alter this selection by selecting the ?% column. SapphireOne will then display the order, OVI as seen in the screenshot below allowing the user to modify the Arrival quantity. We have arrived 500 which is 50% of the order
Modify Order Page
The Modify Order Page presents the Order Vendor Invoice for the selected order.
The functionality of the Order Vendor Invoice is detailed on our Order Vendor Invoice page.
It should be noted that not all items within the OVI may be modified.
Normally the user will only alter the Arrival quantity although the Ordered quantity may be altered as well. Both the Date In and the Arrival dates may be altered by the user. This then establishes the OVI as still having some goods on backorder.
Processing Page
Once the Process button is selected SapphireOne will create a new Purchase Vendor Invoice (PVI) for the goods delivered and modify the Order Vendor Invoice (OVI) (with a new internal reference number), to the quantity outstanding setting the Back Order quantity to the same value as that still to be delivered.
