You can capture a Supplier Invoice from:

  • a PO
    Creating a Supplier Invoice from a PO links these two documents together.  This allows for accurate reporting and tracking of what you have ordered from suppliers, compared to the actual costs incurred.

  • the Add New button
    Creating a Supplier Invoice from a job using the Add New button will create an Invoice that is not related to any other document.  This is not ideal if you need accurate reporting and tracking of what you have ordered from suppliers, compared to the actual costs incurred.

Step-by-step guide


  1. Open the Job Bag from which the Supplier Invoice will be created. 

     Capturing a Supplier Invoice from a PO

    Here's a visual demonstration for creating a Supplier Invoice from a PO


    1. With the PO from which you want to capture a Supplier Invoice open, click the Shortcut Menu on the Toolbar and select Supplier Invoice.



    2. On the Create Supplier Invoice dialog, click on the drop down arrow on the first field, and select from a list of capture options.

      By default, new Supplier Invoices are created with billing option Capture the Full / Outstanding Value of the Purchase Order.  

      The Agency Fee % field populates by default, but only applies to a Supplier Invoice relating to contractors, where the personal income tax portion (PAYE) needs to be split from the main cost.

    3. Enter the Supplier's invoice number in the InvNo field. This field is mandatory. 


    4. Click the Calendar button on the Date field and select the date which appears on the invoice from your supplier.

    5. Confirm the items to be captured on the Supplier Invoice, and uncheck items not to be captured. 

    6. Confirm or edit the amount to be captured.


      The remaining columns provide information helpful to check the accuracy of the input, such as how much has been invoiced to date.
    7. If the Create as Draft checkbox is selected, the Supplier Invoice will be created with a Draft status and you will be able to edit it. In the example below, the Invoice was added in a Captured status.

    8. Click the Create button.

      The Supplier Invoice screen is opened in a Captured status to restrict editing. To edit the invoice, change the status to Draft. Please note that this depends on the integrated accounting package, and you may not change the status from Captured if the document has already been exported.

      The Supplier Invoice will be created. If the Create as Draft checkbox was selected, you will be able to edit the Supplier Invoice.
