Purchase invoice entry - limit accounts on lookup

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 9

Is it possible to limit the accounts on the list when looking them up on a purchase invoice? I tried to use the filter but it didn't stay. Is there a setting when creating a G/L account where you can tell it to only be available in the purchase area?

    security filters is an opion, but could have sideeffects on other processes. needs detailed testing.

    other option would be to add a new bool field "for purchase only" in table "g/l account" and pages "g/l account" and list page "g/l accounts". you could then filter by that new field.

    Hello Julie - You should be able to accomplish this using Security Filters.  Below is the doc on this feature:
