Recording Goods Received Note (Growth Plan)

A Goods Received Note (GRN) is an internal document produced by the warehouse team after inspecting the goods once they have been delivered at the warehouse. 

Recording GRNs in EasyEcom will enable your team to easily locate inventory at your warehouse, and ensure that you only list products across sales channels that meet your quality standards.
