I have just started working for a manufacturing company and they raise Purchase orders. If I am receiving purchase invoices, what is the difference if I post using the purchase order update or I just put them on using supplier batch invoices.
I have previously only worked for Companies that don't have stock.
Hi Karen, if you are using the purchase order system, and a manufacruring company...its assumed they do so for stock purposes. So when they receive the goods they should 'booking' them in or using the GRN button. The invoices should be matched physically up to delivery notes/ PO's/GRN's and then you can just batch post them. If they are only raising PO's for a paper excercise then you can just batch post your purchase invoices.
Thank you Andrina for your reply. They are booking them in using the GRN button. I just wanted to ensure that I wasn't missing a stage by batch posting invoices rather than updating purchase orders. I have tried to do a test on Sage and thought that everything was OK as stock is updated once the GRN is processed.
