Anonymous We received the above orders from Xl shops and Yl shops on [date] recepectively / We received the above orders from Xl shops and Yl shops recepectively [date] The first is closer to being correct than the second, except "recepectively" is not a word. If you mean "respectively" then I would expect two dates, one for Xl shops and one for Yl shops as in: We received the above orders from Xl shops and Yl shops on September 5 and September 3 respectively . Respectively means that Xl orders were received September 5 and Yl orders were received September 3.
