Post purchase invoice before goods receipt

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 134

Hi,

 

I am setting up a system for a new client that buys from vendors with long delivery time and with terms that states that the invoice from the vendor will be sent long before the goods arrive at our client's warehouse. They must register the purchase invoice directly when it arrives, match it against the PO and send it for approval, post it so that is ready to be paid.

 

When the goods arrive, how can the goods receipt then be matched against the PO/invoice?

 

My idea was to set Qty to receive to 0 so that the PO remains open although the invoice is posted but that field is read only when I show it on the purchase invoice lines.

 

This should not be a totally uncommon scenario, does anybody have a good solution for it?

 

Thanks,

Jim
