Topic: Supplier Invoice

When I receive an Invoice I typically have a shipping charge.

How should that be entered?

I do see a way to add a GL Entry to go with the invoice, but with shipping
charges (Inward Freight) being relatively common I figured there should
(could) be a field on the Invoice entry form (purchasing/supplier_invoice.php)

Why not create a Quick Entry for this? To use in the GL part.

I donno, would I need to enter the invoice and then enter the shipping charges separately?

I figured that a very high percentage of invoices include some form of shipping or handling charge that it would merit adding that field to the form.

I'd like to stay away from the GL area when possible, too many chances for errors (self inflicted)

Re: Supplier Invoice

When you create Quick Entry with type Supplier Invoice/Credit you can use it during purchase invoice entry. Here you have to select the right Quick Entry and input needed charges amount. That's all.

I added a Quick Entry for Supplier Invoice/Credit and I do not see how that will generate the desired effect.

It should add to the total I owe that supplier.
It should also add to the Freight Inwards (4300)

I am hoping to not worry about GL Account codes for day to day normal operations...

How do Quick Entries work?

I created one and I see it on the Enter Supplier Invoice page and I add items to the invoice and enter a number in the Quick Entry and click GO and nothing appears to happen.

What am I missing?
