# Receipts

A receipt that describes that goods are received

The `receipt` is a sub-entity of the `inboundProcess` which maps all processes around incoming goods in a store or warehouse. Whenever a `receipt` is created, a corresponding `inboundProcess` is automatically created.

Create a `receipt` by executing the following POST call with the JSON body:

### Create receipt

To create , use our API endpoints.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Create new receipt (creates new inbound process)" %}

```http
POST https://{YOUR_TENANT_NAME}.api.fulfillmenttools.com/api/receipts
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Example request body:

{% code title="request.json" %}

```json
{
  "facilityRef": "CGN-01",
  "comments": [],
  "receivedDate": "2025-03-16T14:15:39.683Z",
  "receivedItems": [
    {
      "acceptedQuantity": {
        "value": 100
      },
      "comments": [],
      "rejectedQuantity": {
        "value": 0
      },
      "storageLocationRef": "2f45a441-6247-4b7d-babe-83fca0ff4bf7",
      "tenantArticleId": "22222"
    }
  ],
  "status": "OPEN"
}
```

{% endcode %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If the request is successful, the API returns a `201 CREATED` response with a body similar to the example below.
{% endhint %}

{% code title="Response (example)" %}

```json
{
  "comments": [],
  "receivedDate": "2025-03-16T14:15:39.683Z",
  "receivedItems": [
    {
      "acceptedQuantity": {
        "value": 100
      },
      "comments": [],
      "rejectedQuantity": {
        "value": 0
      },
      "storageLocationRef": "Inbound-01",
      "tenantArticleId": "22222",
      "stockProperties": {}
    }
  ],
  "status": "OPEN",
  "id": "6e963526-09af-45f1-9ac7-add78e3e2607",
  "inboundProcessRef": "7060a93e-e0d5-4dd4-8478-50acbd07189b",
  "created": "2025-03-12T16:16:28.543Z",
  "lastModified": "2025-03-12T16:16:28.543Z",
  "version": 1
}
```

{% endcode %}

Alternatively, a `receipt` can be created simultaneously when creating the respective `inboundProcess` via:

```http
POST https://{YOUR-TENANT-NAME}.fulfillmenttools.com/api/inboundprocesses
```

or can be added to an existing `inboundProcess` via:

```http
PUT https://{YOUR-TENANT-NAME}.fulfillmenttools.com/api/inboundprocesses/{inboundProcessId}/receipts.
```
