 +===== The stock was recorded as received with the incorrect price =====
 +
 +Stock can be received from the correct supplier, but with the incorrect price.  Possible reasons for this include:
 +  * The price in the original PO is 'wrong'
 +  * There is more than one PO containing the item for the supplier, and the wrong PO (with a different price) was selected when receiving the goods.
 +
 +If stock of an item was recorded as received, but with the incorrect price, do the following:
 +
 +==== GR+SI receipts ====
 +
 +When a purchase order (PO) is used in the procurement process, then the price is set by the PO.  If the PO price was 'wrong', then the corrective actions should be governed by organisational policies and procedures.  If your organisation and the supplier have agreed that the price was wrong, and needs to be changed, then there are two approaches, an auditor recommended approach and a method that is not recommended by auditors.

 +Be sure that whatever method is used complies with your organisations procurement policies

 +<wrap em>The Auditor recommended method:</wrap>  Cancel those lines on the PO and create a new PO
 +  - Return the affected items on the current SI (refer to [[faq:incorrect_receiving#too_much_stock_was_recorded_as_received|Too much stock was recorded as received]] above)
 +  - Create a new PO for the affected items with the correct price
 +  - Receive the corrected stock as normal.
 +
 +There is another method that is <wrap em>not normally acceptable to auditors</wrap> as it involves amending historic transactions rather than creating new transactions to correct the mistakes in historic transactions.  It is included here only because some mSupply using customers choose this method and request assistance with it.  This method involves amending the historic PO and SI:
 +  - Amend the prices on the historic PO - refer [[purchasing:ordering_from_suppliers#editing_purchase_order_lines|Editing purchase order lines]]
 +  - Amend the prices on the SI - refer [[receiving_goods:supplier_invoices#editing_lines_on_a_supplier_invoice|Editing lines on a supplier invoice]]
 +
 +
 +==== SI only receipts ====
 +
 +Even if a purchase order (PO) was not used in the procurement process and the price on the original paper supplier invoice turns out to be 'wrong', then the corrective actions should be governed by organisational policies and procedures.  If your organisation and the supplier have agreed that the price was wrong, and needs to be changed, then, as above, there are two approaches, an auditor recommended approach and a method that is not recommended by auditors.
