Pre-receiving of Purchase Orders

Hi All,

Scenario - Vendor is located abroad. The vendor ships the material as per our Purchase Order & issues an Invoice to us. The material will be received by us after 15 - 20 days as it will be in-transit, i.e. on the ship.

Requirement - I would like to know how can I receive this Invoice in my system without having actually received the item. I would like to know what movement types should i use & also how should i receive this invoice into my system, so that the system knows the item has been shipped, but is still not received into my store. Await your inputs
