Hi ​@kruthika,
As far as I've come to understand it, different Receive Scenarios are called “Receive Cases” in IFS. These are stored in the ‘Supplier for Purchase Part’ page and can be set at users discretion subject to the scenario at hand.
 



Following excerpt is straight out of the IFS documentation. I hope this helps answer the question/s you have at hand. 

Receive Case: Receive into Inventory

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received directly into a stock location, e.g., a picking location. You cannot use this receive case if mandatory create analysis has been chosen in IFS/Quality Management. (A receive case with inspection is recommended for such instances).

Receive Case: Receive into Arrival, Perform Putaway

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received to the default arrival location and then moved to the best possible location available. Transport tasks are created suggesting the move from the arrival location to the best available location(s) in stock.

Receive Case: Receive into Arrival

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received into an arrival location. (When entering a purchase order line, the receive case Receive into arrival is indicated by default if nothing else is specified for the supplier relationship for the purchase part.) Then the inventory parts and the inventory registered purchase parts should be moved into a stock location in order to complete the receipt. For non-inventory registered purchase parts and no-number parts, the receipt is completed.

You cannot use this receipt case when using Control Plans - Purchasing in IFS/Quality Management (It is recommended that you use a receive case with inspection for such instances). 

Receive Case: Receive into Arrival, Inspect at Arrival

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received into an arrival location. The inspection should be done at the arrival location. Then, you can enter the inspection results and move the inventory parts and inventory registered purchase parts to a stock location. For non-inventory registered purchase parts and no-number parts, the receipt is completed.

Receive Case: Receive into Arrival, Inspect at QA

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received into an arrival location. Move the parts to an inspection location, inspect the parts, and then enter the inspection results before moving the parts to a stock location.

Receive Case: Receive into QA, Inspect at QA

When the arrival registration is done, the parts are received directly into an inspection location. Inspect the parts and enter the inspection results before moving the parts to a stock location.
