What is invoice field in purchase header table used for

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 10

My query is the result of creating conditions as part of process workflows.

Since there already is a DocumentType field with value 'invoice' what is the 'invoice' field (values yes/no) in Purchase Header table used for?  

Maybe a more valid question - is there an archive/source where the purpose of table fields is properly documented?

Thank you,

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    DocumentType is option field and having the values as a Identifier which kind of document it has, like Quote,Order,Invoice,Credit Memo,Blanket Order,Return Order, and responsible to show the standard pages we have Purchase Order, Quote, Invoice etc.

    Other one we have Invoice, Receive Boolean fields which make a document as identifier what of kind of posting system should perform when you choose Receive or Invoice option while post the Purchase documents.
