Delayed Payments As Goods Not Marked As Received

I'm currently doing my AAT level 4 ICAS project.
The issue I have identified is within the "purchase to pay" procedure in accounts payable. An invoice cannot be entered on Sage until the goods are marked on Sage as "received" by the person who raised the order. This can be forgotten . . . Delays in this means delays in adding to the system and then supplier payments.
I'm looking to make recommendations for improvement regarding this issue.
I've got the obvious:
1 - Better communication between deparments
2 - Daily reports covering what isn't receipted but has been invoiced sent to those who raise orders
I'd like to list less obvious recomendations, but changing the system (Sage/goods being acknowledged as received before invoice is added) is not an option.

Please suggest! Big or small.
Please forgive spelling/grammar - the iPhone isn't the best for error checking.
Thank you in advance.

Can I double check, are you using Sage 200? What version?
