Purchase Receipt Comments and Purchaser Code Copied to Purchase Invoice

Posted on by 22

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.

    Hi Zhu,

    Thank you for your reply, this is very helpful indeed.

    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!

    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, 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.

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