Additional Reference # Field in Stock Receipts and A/P
Invoice Entry
Stock Receipts now allows for the entry
of a new Reference # field. This new field is available on the top line
along with the P/O #, Release #, Vendor #, Name, and Authorization fields.
Its purpose is to allow for entering a Packing Slip, vendor order number, or
similar type reference number during the receiving process that will hopefully
make it easier to match up incoming vendor invoices against the proper receipt.
If you do not see this new field by default, try enlarging/widening your
Stock Receipts Entry window, if you have room.
This new Reference # field will also print on the Stock Receipts Journal and be
updated into Receipts History where it will also print on the Uninvoiced
Receipts Report
But just as important, it will display (again room permitting based on your
window size) and be searchable in the Receipts History Search window that is
accessible from A/P Invoice Entry to assist users in matching up invoices to the
proper P/O # and Release #(s). It will appear in this window in a new
column to the far right assuming your monitor, screen resolution, and window
size allow it to show.
So if you think this would be helpful to A/P operators, encourage receiving
personnel to enlarge their Stock Receipts Entry window if possible to allow
access to this new field and to begin utilizing it. A/P operators may also
need to enlarge their Receipts History window if they want this new column to be
visible at all times. When possible the program will try to detect if room
is sufficient on these screens to enlarge your windows and adjust them
accordingly.
This new Reference # field is also available in the Bar Code Receiving program.
