Entering a purchase invoice on Sage 50
Permalink Closed


Its been about 3 years since I last used Sage and I'm trying to enter a purchase invoice onto the system. Do I highlight the supplier then click invoice or do I go through the new purchase order or the place order from the list?

Thanks

Good morning Kay
Are you just entering a purchase invoice? If so either highlight and click batch invoice or enter the batch posting without highlighting - either works. Dont forget the cal net button if you only have the gross figure.
You can also hide columns by the right mouse click on the header if you do not want to see certain areas - saves tabbing over them. ie depts
good luck

Calc net button? Good grief, use F9 - much faster than switching from keyboard to mouse to click a button!

It depends how quick on the draw you are Vince, this town aint big enough for the both of us lol.

I actually find it better using short cuts in Sage, i struggle with Excel though, right click the mouse or try and remember which combination to press on the keyboard.

Mind you, i had a PC for nearly a year (back in the day) and never used the right mouse button until a server technician friend of mine showed me what it did and opened a

whole new world for me lol.

Any time Kay.
F9 or Calc net - either works, the comment was meant "dont forget to use the calc net" - which ever method suits the user - if it works for user dont knock it, as long as Sage does for the person rather than getting out a calculator.
Ive found some use wizards for opening new customer accounts rather than record - if it suits them and work is complete - who am I to knock it.

Thanks all.

To be honest Vince I'd rather not use shortcuts until I'm confident using sage. I'd rather it take me however long it takes to process something in sage than press something I'm not sure of and end up making a mistake.
