Topic: Service Business - supplier's reference is required

I am using FA for a services business, and I create direct purchase invoices for my contractors who provide the services.  The problem is that the supplier's reference is required in the form, and my contractors do not have a supplier's reference.  Is there any way to get around this?

The suppliers reference is the same as the suppliers invoice number.

Where do I get the suppliers invoice number?  Is it supposed to be generated by the supplier?

The suppliers invoice number is printed on the invoice somewhere. You can also use another unique reference.

Great, I think I will create my own unique reference for each supplier invoice since my suppliers do not provide it.

Or you can edit the php to remove the system check for a supplier's reference.  I just commented the lines out.
