# How to take measurements and accept goods on site

Source: https://archiboard.design/help/how-to/measurement-acceptance

Measurement and acceptance are mandatory steps for furniture, panels, windows and doors. ArchiBoard reminds you about the measurement, assigns a task to the person responsible and helps you accept goods on site with photos and automatic label matching. This prevents mistakes in sizes and SKUs, and if something doesn't match, you keep evidence for a claim to the supplier.

1. **Enter the measurement dates.** For cabinet furniture, wall panels, windows and interior doors, measurement is on by default. Enter the planned and actual date: ArchiBoard creates a measurement task and a 📐 appears on the timeline. Until the measurement is done, the item shows the «Awaiting measurement» badge.
2. **Open acceptance.** When an item is set to «Delivered», the person responsible automatically gets a task to accept it on site. In the item's row, click «Acceptance».
3. **Check the data and attach documents.** In «Inspection», check the SKU, colour, dimensions and quantity. Attach «Delivery notes» and a «Photo report» — they help if questions come up later.
4. **Use AI label matching.** Take a photo of the product label. ArchiBoard reads the codes and EAN and compares them with the estimate item, so you don't have to type them in.
5. **Record the result.** Choose the result: «Accepted» or «Discrepancy». If there are problems, add a comment — it will be useful for a claim to the supplier.

- Measurement is on by default for cabinet furniture, panels, windows and doors — don't forget to enter the dates.
- The photo report and delivery notes are saved in the item card, which is handy for client reports.
- AI label matching saves time and reduces the risk of mistakes at acceptance.
- A comment on a discrepancy is your insurance when dealing with the supplier.
