How to link Purchase Orders?

edited Apr 6, 2023 12:58AM in Ask A Guru 7 comments

Hi Guru's


I am trying to find better visibility in our purchase order process. If I order an inventory item "widget" from Vendor "A" on PO-1234, and we are paying for the freight, duty, and customs charges, we are using landed cost templates. This takes care of the costs being applied to the items correctly.

There are a couple of issues I have:

  1. We are not paying Vendor "A'" for those charges. We are manually creating invoices to different vendors "freight" "duty" & "customs". There does not seem to be a way to automate this that I am aware of.
  2. We constantly run into scenarios where PO-1234 is billed, but we are still waiting for an invoice from "Freight" or "Duty". Because neither is directly connected to PO-1234, it makes it a very manual process to figure out what still needs to be done on an order.

Howdy, Stranger!
