I am in the construction indusrty.
An example of what I would like as an advancement in Accounts Right.
I raise a purchase order for $80.000.00 for an electricial company for a house build fit out. This job will be done over a period of months.
I would like to link each and every invoice that relates to the purchase order however the purchase order initial amount stays at $80,000.00 whilst the the balance will reduce by each total amount of the linked invoice.
In doing this I would like to enter the invoice link it to the order in one process not enterig the information twice in different screens.
Any one else out there this would benefit?
I feel this would be a great benefit to keepign track of all orders and linked invoices.
So we create one Order and then at time of processing the invoice/Bill you would link the bill to the order and this would automatically come off the oustanding balance of the order, (whilst keeping the orginal amount of the order visiable and the remanding balance reduces by the Bill amount)
Rinnie
I agree very strongly with Rinnie on this one. I have worked with other systems that manage this similar to an inventory purchase and receipt, with the ability to "receipt" a service with the balance going to back order. It would add an AA to the PO number for the back order so that you had a different reference for each invoice but it was still linked to the initial order. A GL purchases clearing account kept the transactions in line.
We are required to issue Purchase Orders for all transactions so the ability to raise a "standing" PO to cover a number of months is a necessity. I'd also like to be able to produce one report that shows all open purchase order balances but with many commitments sitting as "recurring" transactions, I have not been able to come up with an efficient solution in MYOB to manage this.
