# Configuring a Job Site to Count Shipments upon Receipt

When the **Receiving Options** section of [the **General** tab in the *Job Site* dialog](/v1/docs/configuring-the-job-site-general-tab) are set to count equipment when received, the shipment is initially assigned the status of To Be Received. As equipment is moved from a location to a location using the **require counting of equipment when received by this Job Site** checkbox, it shows as In Transit status at the receiving location. These Shipments are not included in invoicing until the Shipment ticket is in Completed status.

To configure a Job Site to count Shipments upon receipt:

1. Locate and click the appropriate Job Site, then click the **Edit selected item** button ( ![](https://cdn.document360.io/ae69c864-58f0-4711-91e1-d1c2f7dff95f/Images/Documentation/03d68e06-942b-492f-93af-2a9e5c927535.png)).
