How Purchase Links to Inventory and Accounting

Overview

Buying, stocking and booking into the ledger are connected. Purchase raises the commercial documents; Inventory receives stock; Accounting posts the money.

How the flow works

1. Raise and approve a Purchase Order in Purchase.
2. Receive goods via Inventory Stock Import when items arrive.
3. Record the Purchase Invoice when the vendor bills you.
4. Accounting mapping (Purchase tab) posts the invoice to the correct ledgers.

Tips

• If the books look wrong, check Accounting > Settings > Mapping > Purchase before changing screens.
