Purchase Receipt Comments and Purchaser Code Copied to Purchase Invoice

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hello dear community,

I have a posted purchase receipt (from a purchase order) containing an item and a comment. The comment is required on the purchase invoice.

However, when doing a new purchase invoice and doing the "Get Receipt Lines..." function on the posted receipt, only the posted receipt document # and the received item are loaded. The comment is not.

Similarly, there a Purchaser Code on the purchase receipt, same issue it doesn't get copied over. This one I could understand because the function is "Get Receipt Lines..." but still a bit curious why it won't pull in this field too.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance for any support.

    Is there a reason why you can not invoice directly from the purchase order?

    Hi, As far as I know, this is standard behavior since NAV.
    In the standard code, you can find a default filter is "PurchRcptLine.SetFilter("Qty. Rcd. Not Invoiced", '<>0');"

    There is no quantity in Comment, so it will not be displayed in "Get Receipt Lines...". Microsoft may consider that too many comments will affect the user experience. . . .

    If you have a developer, let him try to use the following event.

    Hope this helps.

    The functionality you are using is a default behavior of the system, you need to customize it to use those fields values, while doing Get Receipt line.

    Thanks.

    Hi Inge,

    Thanks for your reply and I understand your query. We want as much as possible to keep roles in their screens, and as such we flow the data from PO->WR->PI

    Purchasers/Purchasing Dept: Purchase Orders

    Warehouse: Warehouse Receipts

    Payables: Purchase Invoices

    I agree that we can simply post a receipt or invoice in the PO screen, but the organisation doesn't want everyone "touching" the PO screens.

    Have a great week!
