Receipt Lines on a posted Purchase Invoice

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by
I am asking the following question on behalf of a customer:

Regarding a Posted Purchase invoice, How can I view what receipt lines were used on a posted purchase invoice?  When you go into the posted invoice, you would not know what receipt lines were used.   

Currently  - customer is using comments to relay this information.

    Hi

    Did they tried Line -> Document Line Tracking?

    If you use the Get Receipt Lines from Purchase Invoices and do not invoice from the PO, the Receipt Number is entered on a separate line.

    Thank you for your suggestion.  

    This is the result of selecting Document Line Tracking:

    Thanks for checking. Have you seen suggestion with Kim?

    Also, what is the steps your customer team take? If I want to replicate the same scenario what should I do? Should I create PO then receive then ....? Thanks

    Thanks Kim for your suggestion.  Where do I see the receipt number entered on a separate line?

    Here is the reply from the customer on replicating the scenario:

    When I do a Purchase Invoice for example using a Invoice from DHL, I apply the freight charges to a Warehouse Receipt, so that the charges get applied to the correct inventory.  

    My problem is, when I need to investigate a invoice that I know was tied to a Warehouse Shipment, I should be able to see this from the Posted Purchase Invoice.  Currently I cannot find anyway of doing this.

    Therefore I now have to make comments on the Posted Purchase Invoice for future reference.

    Hi Andrew,

    I can confirm Kim's comment, here's a screenshot of an example:

    Thanks Rob - Was the contents of the Description field in your example for the comment line - auto-generated? or Manually input?

    Hi, the line is auto-generated by the system when using the "Get Receipt Lines" function.

    Hi, you can use Line -> Item Receipt Lines, to see Posted Purchase Receipt Lines.

    But that's...obviously a bit of a hassle.
