Purchases/Receive Inventory

You can also go to purchase/receive inventory window by clicking on task menu and selecting purchase/receive inventory. Then following window will be open:

This allows you to either enter vendor purchase invoices or receive inventory for purchase orders. The vendor can be an already-existing vendor, or you can add a new vendor.

·         Apply to Purchase Order tab: When you select a vendor who has open purchase orders, Peachtree displays the tab, allowing you to select which purchase order to receive items against.

·         Apply to Purchases tab: If you select a vendor with no open purchase orders, by default Peachtree displays this tab, where you can enter a purchase that did not originate on a purchase order. In addition, if items were included on the purchase invoices that are not included on the purchase order, you can add them here.

·         Enter or select the vendor ID. To display a list of existing vendors, type? In this field, or select the Lookup button.

If you have open purchase orders with this vendor, the Apply to Purchase Order # tab displays in front.

·         Enter the vendor's invoice number in the Invoice # field. This is a required field.

If you have not yet received a vendor invoice (bill) for this shipment, select the Waiting on Bill from Vendor check box. Once your vendor sends you the bill, edit this invoice; clear the Waiting on Bill from Vendor check box; and enter the invoice number. Then, when you post the invoice with the invoice number, you will be able to select the invoice for payment.
