NSC | Item Receipt > Use Expenses Tab

Scenario

User wants to know how to utilize the Expenses Tab in Item Receipt.

Solution

To receive expenses, you must be able to add expenses to purchase orders. To enable this preference, an administrator can go to Setup > Accounting > Preferences > Accounting Preferences . Check the Allow Expenses on Purchase Orders box, and click Save.

You can now create purchase orders for expenses.

Expenses are not physical items that you receive. However, it is still important to record that the expenses have been accounted for.

For example, your Marketing Director enters a purchase order for advertising. Advertising is not an item that is delivered and received, but you want to make sure that your ad appears correctly. After the ads are verified, you can mark the advertising expense received.
