Can Invoe handle partial shipments?
Yes. Count the quantities that arrived. The balance stays open on the same purchase order for the next delivery, with the receiving history kept together.

Start receiving as soon as the boxes arrive. Your team opens the prepared order, counts what came in and keeps the balance open for the next delivery. No order to retype before you can get back to the floor.

The receiving desk
The order is already waiting when the boxes arrive.
Shipments rarely arrive exactly as ordered. Without a clean receiving flow, teams miss shortages, overpay invoices, or lose track of what is still coming.
- 01
Open the right order
Find the PO in the receiving queue, or scan the shipment at the dock.
- 02
Count by item and by size
Record what is actually in the box against what the vendor promised, down to the size.
- 03
Leave the balance where it belongs
Anything short stays open on the same PO, waiting for the next delivery.
One order, every arrival
One PO carries the whole story.
A partial delivery does not become a second order or a loose note. The original PO keeps what arrived, what is still coming, and what needs a vendor conversation, together.
- Tick what arrived, the balance stays open
- Shortage and damage tracking
- Invoice and landed-cost checks
- One PO across every receive cycle
The practical questions.
Can it help with vendor claims?
Yes. Claims tracking is included on paid plans. Record shortages or damaged items with the purchase order so vendor follow-up has a clear record. Claims are not included in the trial.
