The first step in using Confirmations is to define a Document Type as requiring a Confirmation.
To create or modify a Document Type, open the Document Type window by clicking on Document Type from the Main Menu. The icon indicates that this is a window.
Document Types define how documents are processed and what processing occurs. To indicate that a Material Shipment or Receipt requires a confirmation, select the Pick/QA Confirmation or the Ship/Receipt Confirmation check boxes. These options allow for Confirmations to occur at multiple levels. In a Material Receipt scenario, you may want a Receipt Confirmation so that you can verify that the product the vendor indicates was sent was actually received. You can also have a QA Confirmation so you can verify the condition or quality of the items received.
