Hi Tom,
Yes our operations people are still getting used to doing that way also.
The system we converted from didn't allow us to voucher an invoice
against the receipt until it was accepted in incoming inspection. I
preferred it that way.

The process is a little different than the way I would have expected it
to work, but basically Epicor says you will pay for the line if you
receive it. Inspection happens after this and if the parts are found to
be non-conforming you kick it into a DMR and go from the there.
The original PO line is now closed even though the parts were bad.
Epicor's logic is that you will create a new PO line for the replacement
parts and receive a credit or debit memo for the first bad line. The new
line you pay for again and it all balances out.
It looks like:
Buy parts
Pay for parts
Reject the parts from inventory
Get credit for the first buy
Buy replacement parts again on a new PO or line.
It was a bit of an adjustment getting used to this process for us.

I am blown away that Epicor allows you to pay for items that don't pass
incoming inspection.

Wow, I am blown away that Epicor explains this as expected behavior.
Why ask why, just write a BPM :)
