Yes. The goal is to have documentation that the items were received, so indicating on the invoice that the items were received, the name of the person who received them, and the date of receipt is acceptable in lieu of signing the packing slip. 

Verification, by either email or signature, would be noted on any of the following documents that contain an itemized list of the goods or services received: 

—Packing slip received with the goods
—Itemized vendor invoice
—Written request for purchase of goods or services
—Other itemized list of goods or services signed by a responsible individual
