Agree with Ferdinand, although that'd be "Receipt", singular, to match "list" which is also singular. Also, "Reception" is incorrect as that is for people arriving somewhere; "Receipt" is for goods.

Scott Hamilton, author of "Maximizing your ERP System" and "Managing your supply chain using Microsoft Navision", uses the terms "Receipt", "Purchase Order Receipt" and "Purchase Receipt".

He also uses "Pick list" rather than "Picking list", although I am accustomed to "Picking...", and "Picking..." (rather than "Pick...") is more consistent with "Packing...".

So, to reiterate/summarise, I'd recommend:
* Picking list
* Packing list
* Receipt or Purchase Order Receipt or Purchase Receipt (to distinguish it from a Cash Receipt)
