Can’t change PO or Receivings distributions for non-inventory item GP10

Posted on by MickieParis 620

I created a PO for a non-inventory item.  That is, on PO entry I entered an item not contained in our inventory.  I wanted to enter the item via Item Card but the Item Type dropdown does not offer a choice for non-inventory.  So I just typed an item in the PO that we don’t have in our inventory.  When I clicked on the blue arrow to go to the Item Detail screen, the Purchases account defaulted from the Vendor card.  I needed to change this account.  When I clicked on the lookup icon, only the current account – the wrong one – displayed in the list.  Fine I said…I change it when I receive the item.  However the same thing happened on the Receivings Entry.  I clicked on the Item Detail blue arrow but could not change the distribution.  Again, only the account that’s in the field is displayed in the lookup screen.  What gives?

    When clicking on the lookup window for GL Account, you are only viewing accounts that are assigned to a vendor.  Above the account number there is a white down arrow and if you click on this, you can choose to view all accounts.  You can even choose to view a restricted list of accounts linked to a Smartlist.  You can do this for both the PO Entry window and the receiving window.

    In Inventory you can setup your items as "Services".  This will allow you to use inventory without having to track quantites.

    After some testing, it looks like the only accounts you can select come from the vendor Purchases accounts off the vendor card.  So you must add any account you need via the Purchases ellipses button then they will be available.
