Generate a purchase invoice

You have the option of generating a purchase invoice based on a goods receipt.

A purchase invoice is always the result of a single goods receipt. You cannot gather together lines from different goods receipts on one purchase invoice.

When generating purchase invoices, Profit copies each line from the goods receipt to the purchase invoice one by one. This only applies for the lines reported ready or quantities reported ready on these lines. Profit thus only invoices what has actually been received. You can still report any non-received quantities ready if they are received later; this then results in a new purchase invoice. Thus, multiple purchase invoices can be created for the same goods receipt.

If you want to create an invoice from an entry layout, you must first configure this.

When creating new goods receipts, Profit automatically selects the Generate purchase invoices check box. You cannot deselect this check box.

Note: 

If you want to generate a purchase invoice for already existing goods receipts, open the properties of the goods receipt and select the check box. Then click on Finish.
