ERS – Setups and Transaction Flow Overview

Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS) is a procedure for the automatic settlement of goods receipts
In an ERS transaction, the supplier ships goods based upon an Advance Shipping Notice (ASN), and the purchaser, upon receipt, confirms the existence of a corresponding purchase order or contract, verifies the identity and quantity of the goods, and then pays the supplier.
