Yes. You can do it by normal PO window by entering inventory items along with service items. The receive and invoice the same PO.

Hope this helps!!!

Hello

What you are looking for is a kind of billable and non-billable line items in purchasing. I have not seen such functionality core GP. I think the only way to charge additional cost to line item while receiving it, is through landed cost.

Soma was partially correct. You can have inventory + service line items on a PO and receive it as well. But you will be left with wrong inventory value. There are several scenarios, but I need time to explain each one in detail.

In short, if you want the service charges to be added as landed cost to the inventory product, then enter the service charges as landed cost. If you simply want to pay the vendor for some of their services (such as training, etc.), then enter the service charges as PO line items, receive them normally through GRN. But you must take care of the distribution, so it does not affect the inventory control account value.

You want Auto apply of Services and Charges on 1 Item. Its not possible i think.

Mean

Item a(Inventory)= 5 USD

Services(Service)2 USD

Insurance(Service)=1 Usd

Item a=7 USD.

Its not possible.

Mounir,

I have checked above scenario. You can use the inventory + service line item in PO, but it won't update inventory value/cost(thanks Vaidy for your update). If you want to update your inventory cost along with service charges, create one Landed Cost as service then include this landed cost group to line item details window. But you need to check your distribution account before post the GRN.

For more details about landed cost, please have a look on the below link.

Also you need to match this landed cost with creating new enter match invoices.

Note: Make sure landed cost is registered.

Hope this helps!!!

Nothing more valuable to add up to what's mentioned by Vaidy.

You definitely can create a PO including both sales inventory and service items. Although, receiving them will never update the cost layer of the "Sales Inventory" with the "Service Items" cost. To do so, you will have to consider the Landed cost functionality.

Keep in mind that you can create predefined landed cost groups, or assign a landed cost to items so that they will automatically be picked.

If you are looking for a more practical case, let us know and we will proceed accordingly

Your feedback is highly appreciated,
