rchase Order when converting to an Invoice?
I know how to backorder an "Item" Layout PO/Invoice but how do I backorder a "Service" layout Purchase Order when converting to an Invoice?
Thanks for the update. We use service layout and sometimes a supplier will supply one line of the order on one invoice and the second line on another invoice. How can we split the purchase order? Thanks
Hi @MichelleS3
Thanks for your post. You can only backorder items that you have in your Inventory list and that have I Inventory This Item ticked. This is because you are tracking the quantity and values of those items.
When you try to record an item sale invoice for an item that you don't have enough stock on hand to fill the sale, the software will prompt you to build, buy or backorder the item. When you purchase items if not all are received you can enter the shortfall in the backorder column to automatically record a purchase order for the amount not supplied on the invoice.
The Service layout is used for services provided or non-item sales, for example, utility bills, accountants fees etc. As you're not recording the purchase of an inventory item there's no quantity received or backordered to enter.
