All capital or controlled assets delivered to the Central Receiving dock will be tagged by a Central Receiving employee.

Not all assets received at our dock can be tagged by our Central Receiving staff, typical exceptions include:

1.  Equipment that is packaged in a manner that results in Central Receiving      personnel being unable to access the equipment (e.g., merchandise in wooden      crates, merchandise sealed in bolted cartons, etc.).
2.  Capital equipment set up as a lot purchase.
3.  Equipment sent as part of a system (Central Receiving personnel would not know      what item to tag).
4.  Special request by department / vendor / sales representative, not to open or      disturb packing.  Merchandise will be delivered without package being opened. 
5.  Once equipment is delivered and set up, the department must notify Finance as      soon as possible.
