Report: Purchase by item

You have the 'Sales by Item' report so why not 'Expenses by Item'?

 

You are able to enter a new Item for each side of the transaction so why not be able to report on both???

 

Thanks

  • Hi I would dearly like a report for purchase by item. We are farmers and need this report for animal reconciliation at end of financial year.

    We have painstakingly entered items and corresponding prices to every single item we purchase for stock when we enter our bills, however have just discovered there is no report so that you can track these items per month/week/year.

    For example, we want to see how many litres of milk we purchase over a month, and despite having "Milk 1L" as an item, there is no way to view this report, and instead we have to go through each invoice and manually compile this information.

    Very strange as I know there is an items sold report!

      YEs!, this would be extremely helpful - why have the sales side and not the purchase side? additionally I would like to have an item that I purchase but don't sell. Such as fuel, I am eligable to claim fuel tax credits, but MYOB Essentials has no way to record this, I have to go through and manually do this or create an outside spreadsheet. if there was a report for purchase side it would be so much easier

    Hi Dev Team,

     

    Could we please have a report in Essentials that lists all my purchases by Items.

     

    Like the Sales by Items, but so I can see what I have purchased without having to dump the Bills by Supplier report to Excel, and then fishing out all the transactions that are relevant.

     

    I can't believe that this is missing.

     

    Thanks,

     

    Alan

      I can get a sales by item. but i cant see purchases by item anywhere. is there anywhere i can see purchases by item in MYOB Essentials? i find reporting in Essentials seriously lacking.

      Hi

      I agree with AlanT

      We have been waiting and requesting this Bills by item report for a while now. Is vital for a business to know these quanities just as much as sales by item.

      Please can this be the next report to develop.

      Hi All,

       

      I see that with great fanfare, you are now able to enter quantities into transactions within the Bank Feeds.

       

      However, this new feature seems rather pointless if you still cannot produce this report.

       

      WT...?

    That's a great suggestion. Anyone else who would find this report useful, please cast your vote for this idea.
