      <Paragraph>This topic describes how to create receipts and link various
		types of records to the receipts. After creating receipts, you must confirm the
		receipts before you can store the goods in the warehouse. How to confirm
		receipts is described in <Link href="/baanerp/wh/onlinemanual/000398" role="manual">Confirming receipts and receipt lines</Link>. For
		a general overview of receipt procedures, see <Link href="/baanerp/wh/onlinemanual/000383" role="manual">Receipt and inspection procedures</Link>.</Paragraph>
