This Family has built in filters which allow you to see open purchase orders that are not all delivered, have a quantity still in receiving, or have been completely delivered.

In the example above, Receiving can see for part 10-88425 that there are Work Order Shortages outstanding for the part. This would indicate that the parts need immediate attention and should be processed through the receiving area quickly. Incoming Inspection has visibility to what parts have been received and need to be inspected. Production Control can see if the parts have arrived, are they still in receiving, have they been accepted or rejected. This visibility can help establish a priority to make the parts available to the Production floor as quickly as possible.
