Overview

After a purchase order (PO) is received or partially received, ServiceTitan generates a unique receipt, which is an electronic copy of the packing slip that you receive with your shipment. Each PO has a unique receipt number and is marked with the date on which the PO was received. In addition, if a PO is fulfilled through multiple shipments, the PO will have multiple receipts associated with each shipment.
