Hi MYOB
I've seen a number of threads which customers ask about attaching documents and MYOB respond that you can't because its a purchase order.
In my opinion there are two situations in which purchase orders are utilised
1. where it is part of a businesses risk management for spend control
2. where it is part of managing progress claims
MYOB you seem to have focussed on reason #1 for purchase orders and not considered #2.
I'd like to provide the reason why it is useful to be able to have attachments to purchase documents.
For clients, particularly in the Maritime Industry (but likely also for cross border transactions and the Building Industry) you negotiate an agreement for the cost of a product, generally a proforma invoice will be issued by the supplier at that time (which we want to track), and they may require say a 25% deposit. The actual commercial invoice may not be issued until the product is released for delivery. So if I ordered $100k Alluminum, paid $25k deposit, a payment may be required when shipped, and a further payment when landed, all this information needs to be tracked. Why in my business would we want to track this information only when the actual invoice arrives?
Any chance you can put this on your road map, and equally have purchase orders work in the Cloud solution also?
Thanks
Justine
