The situation

The receiving team needs to reconcile the delivered units against the purchase order and any agreed revision requirements. A receiving checklist should identify the units reviewed and show the decision for any exception.

The part and the purchasing risk

Similar-looking modules can carry different suffixes or revisions. A sealed carton can also conceal a labeling discrepancy. Any acceptance check should follow the scope the buyer agreed for the order.
