1. Go to the Purchase Requests and Orders work center.
2. Go to the Purchase Orders view.
3. Select the relevant purchase order.
4. In the purchase order screen the button New Goods and Services Receipt is grayed out.

In the contract, you do not expect Goods and Services Receipt and hence the button is grayed out. Because in the purchase order, the system will consider a follow-up delivery flag from the contract. The Goods and Service Acknowledgment can be created only if the flag is set in the purchase order. If the flag is not set in purchase order, it is not possible to create a Goods Receipt for this Order.

If you are expecting the goods and service receipts acknowledgement against the purchasing order, you have to select the checkbox Goods and Services Receipt Expected in the contract.

1. Go to the Sourcing and Contracting work center.
2. Go to the Contracts view.
3. Select the relevant Contract and select Edit.
4. Go to the Items tab.
5. Go to the Basic Data tab and select the checkbox Goods and Services Receipt Expected.
