farm receivings

The Egg Room Farm Receiving transaction records the egg being received from the entity and recorded in inventory at the egg room on the farm.

Additional Options to Add a Record

An Egg Receiving new record can also be added in two additional ways instead of By Farm:

• By Date
• By Category

By Date

1. In the Egg Room Farm Receivings main index, click and select 'New Records (By Date)'.
2. In the Date dialog box, enter the Date of the record and then click the OK button.

By Category

The By Category option is only available in version 7.26 and up.

1. In the Egg Room Farm Receivings main index, click and select 'New Records (By Category)'. This will open the dialog box to enter additional information.

2. In the Egg Receiving by Egg Category section, enter a unique Tracking No to identify the record.
3. Select the Complex Entity No from where the egg will be received.
4. In the Received Date field, enter the date the eggs will be received.
5. Optionally, the Buggy No can be selected.
6. In the Products section, select the required egg product and enter the number of Units required.
7. Click the OK button and the main Farm Receiving transaction screen will appear.

Post a Farm Receiving Transaction

Once the farm receiving transaction is saved and closed, the transaction can be posted. The posting process locks the transaction to prevent edits, and will add the product to egg room inventory and pass the statistical data back to the entity. Journals will be created if there is an internal price set up for the product. This amount will be reversed at period end when the actual amount is calculated. If there is no internal price, there are no journals.

1. In the Farm Receivings main index, select the required transaction, rick-click and select 'Post.' Alternatively, click the green check mark in the top menu bar and select 'Post'.
2. To un-post a farm receiving transaction, select the required transaction and right-click to select 'Unpost'.  This process will set the transaction status to 'Reversed' status, which allows the transaction to be edited.
   

Journal Transaction

The posting process creates the journal transaction if there is an internal price set up for the product. In these cases, the journal transaction is created to debit the egg room inventory of the hatchery and credit the breeder that transferred out the farm eggs.
