1E0 - Receive Goods on Trial

This is a type of internal receiving.

It is recommended to use a special document type for goods on trial. Goods received on trial remain the property of the supplier, that is why it is posted to off-balance-sheet accounts and booked to a separate (often fictional) warehouse, because such goods are generally not for resale.

Returning such goods is most easily accomplished by creating a reversed document (for example with the predefined issue document type Returned goods on trial) with the Add function and there the Change Sign (reverse document) option enabled.

For an example, see Issuing goods on trial, which deals with the matter from the other end, i.e. giving your goods on trial and receiving them back.
