Receiving products
If everything goes as planned, the products we have ordered will be arriving within four days or less. Once the products have arrived, we must receive our products into inventory.

Getting ready to receive
At this point, we have not actually received the product yet. This is just showing us the details on the product that we are ready to receive. The WH/IN/00001
is sequentially assigned for each transaction.
Note
Please be aware that it is possible the transaction name WH/IN/000001
may be different in your installation, as Odoo changes the sequences that are defined in a default installation from time to time. These names can be user-configured by going to Settings | Sequences & Identifiers | Sequences
. You could even change the default prefix from PO
to whatever you desire, as long as it does not conflict with the prefix of another module.
The WH
in the name is short for warehouse and the IN
is short for incoming goods...
