Receiving Inventory in Advance of a Bill

If you maintain inventory, you can indicate that items have been received without entering a bill.

To receive items without billing them:

  1. Go to Transactions > Purchases > Receive Orders.

  2. Select a vendor.

    You can select All to show all purchase orders with a Pending Receipt status.

  3. Click Receive in the Process column next to the purchase order you want to receive.

  4. On the Item Receipt page, verify that the items to receive are correct.

  5. Click Save.

    The status of the Purchase Order is now Pending Billing.

Now, your inventory records will be up to date, but the order will not yet show as a bill entered. When you receive the bill from the vendor, bill the purchase order.
