There are two primary reasons
for checking deliveries. The first is to ensure that you get exactly what you
ordered, while the second is to make certain you get what you are paying for.
Purchase specifications are established based on the standard recipes
you developed for your operation. All of those written specifications are for
naught if the person checking the delivery isn't aware of what was ordered. Ask
yourself what document the person in charge in charge uses to check the
delivery. In almost every case it is the delivery invoice. While it may be an
indication of what the supplier put on the truck, it is not 100-percent accurate
of what was ordered.
