Explanation of How to Create a New Purchase Invoice:
To create a new purchase invoice, please follow the steps outlined below:
-
Basic Invoice Details:
-
- First, you will need to specify the invoice owner, which is the supplier you are dealing with. You can do this by selecting from the dropdown list of available suppliers.
- The invoice creation date is set automatically based on the current date, but you have the flexibility to modify it if necessary.
- Each invoice has a unique reference number that distinguishes it from others. This reference number is a serial identifier for the invoice.
- Through the Purchase Invoices page, you can check the credit limit for the supplier before proceeding with the invoice.
- The due date for invoice payment is initially determined based on the agreed-upon payment terms with the supplier, which are specified in their records.
- The supplier’s reference number is specific to their invoice records and is used to link our internal invoices with those issued by the supplier.
- You can also choose the establishment branch to which the invoice should be assigned, from the dropdown list of available establishment branches.
- Finally, you’ll be prompted to select the store where the items on the invoice will be supplied.
-
Item Table in the Invoice:
- When you are ready to add items to the invoice, you can select the products you wish to purchase.
- You’ll need to specify the quantity for each item. The item’s price field will be automatically populated based on the purchase pricing associated with the item and the selected supplier in the invoice. However, you have the flexibility to adjust this price if needed.
- The system supports all types of taxes, and these taxes will be added automatically to the invoice.
- Note: When choosing the cash payment option, the supplier’s payment is added automatically upon executing the invoice.
- Once you have completed filling in all the necessary details, you can click the “Insert Invoice” button to create the invoice.
