  Receive external is a component of the SAP system that allows users to receive goods from external vendors. It is part of the Supply Chain Management (SCM) module and is used to manage the flow of goods from vendors to customers. The component consists of three parts: SBN (Supplier Billing Number), LBN (Logistics Billing Number), and MT (Material Type). 
  
  How to use it: 
  The SBN is used to identify the vendor and the LBN is used to identify the customer. The MT is used to identify the type of material being received. When a vendor sends goods to a customer, they must provide the SBN, LBN, and MT in order for the goods to be received in SAP.
