Receiving - Add the ability during receiving to attach the packing slip document to the receipt (MATRECTRANS) record - It should also be added to the Maximo Mobile Inventory Receiving

When receiving a set of items, it should be possible to scan a document and associate it with the receipt records and to then to view those attachments from the appropriate MATRECTRANS records. This is best achieved by attaching the packing slip to the PO (which you can do today) and then linking that record to the Material Receipts record (MATRECTRANS). Therefore, it is the linking piece which is missing today in the Receipts application. There are other documents associated with return or inspection results, therefore it is not just a packing slip.

For Maximo Mobile there should be the same capability, except today you cannot save an attachment in Inventory - Receiving application. It doesn't matter where in the process you are you should always be able to add the attachment and link it to the appropriate receipt lines. Therefore, add attachment to the PO and link to the receipt line from the Receipts button.
