Hi:

It's pretty easy to "drill down" from sales invoices to sales orders and vice versa through the "Navigate" button.

But, I do not see an easy and obvious means of tying Posted Purchase Invoices and Archived Purchase Orders. Why is that? If I'm wrong, what is the best way to locate a purchase order that "created" the corresponding purchase invoice and vice versa?

Thanks!

John

Multiple ways to navigate based on the requirements..

As an example, you can add a flow field on the posted document line to look up the archived document but first understand how archiving works from a data table point of view - more than one archived document can exist so some filtering required to get the last one. if you are dealing with a customer with a smaller number of orders you can stop archiving altogether

Hi, I think there are two main reasons for this
1. In purchase invoices you can get multiple purchase order lines (actually is receipt lines) and post them in one invoice.

2. Due to the situation of products may be delivered in installments., a different version of Archived Purchase Orders will be generated for each posting.

So, I think you can refer to the following method to find Purchase Order Archive from Post Purchase Invoice.

Hope this will help.

Thanks.
