Detailed chart of accounts descriptions for posted purchase invoices

Posted on by 2
Back with GP dynamics you could run a smartlist that could pull in multiple levels of detail.  I need detail descriptions for everything that was posted into a certain account, but when it is a posted invoice, it just shows the summed up information from that invoice. So if we had a invoice that has multiple lines with the same g/l number and detailed descriptions, once it is posted to the G/L this gets summed up. I can't figure out how to get the detail without having to click on multiple invoices. 
 
see below - these items are on one posted invoice coded to 6320, but when I pull up the G/L it sums it up to just the vendor name. So frustrating.

    Hi, you can try the following two fields in G/L Entry table.

    In the 'Purchases & Payables Setup' page you can check off the 'Copy Line Descr. to G/L Entry' field.
     
    This way when you post an invoice it won't sum up your lines but post post each one individually and copy over the description that each line had on the invoice.
