Logging Purchase Invoices

We are looking to start using Sage 50 Accounts Professional 2014 for purchase ordering, one issue we have is the logging and payment of purchase invoices prior to goods being received and the subsequent matching up once goods are received - can this be done?

thanks

  • Hi Steven,

    You can create a batch invoice and pay this separate to the purchase order module. However, it would mean that once you complete the purchase order and an invoice is created automatically, you would need to delete the duplicate invoice created by the order.

    Thanks

  • We actually use our purchase order system for quotation also - just create a different layout.
    For the payment, just post the cheque or BACS as an unallocated amount in supplier payment to the relevant supplier account, through the Bank module. Then after the goods have been received and the order marked as completed, use the update button in the POP module to create your invoice. Post your invoice and then go back into the Bank module supplier payment to match the 2 transactions together as a payment with zero value. I just type in ADJUST in the Cheque number field as a reference.
  • Hi Dan, we have exactly this problem, how do we 'delete' the invoice that is created by receiving the goods please?
  • Hi Peter,

    Thanks for using our Product Support Community.

    The invoice is posted as a purchase invoice (PI) transaction on the audit trail and the supplier’s account. You can delete this from the audit trail in the Transactions module. To do this, in Transactions, highlight the PI and click Delete > Delete > Yes to confirm.
