How to handle BILL IN ADVANCE OF RECEIPT

edited Dec 23, 2019 10:44PM in Accounting / ERP 2 comments

Hello,

Many times we have vendors send us their bills before we receive in their items. Right now we have a pile of these bills waiting in a filing cabinet for the item receipt to be generated and the packing list to be handed in and matched to it. If we enable the BILL IN ADVANCE OF RECEIPT accounting preference it allows us to create the bill and upload the PDF to Netsuite. However we do not want to pay this bill until the item receipt is generated by shipping. Does anyone know of a way we can have AP create the bill inside Netsuite prior to us receiving the items but NOT pay this bill until the items are received in?

Howdy, Stranger!
