Purchase Orders #2

Problem

More about purchase orders in MacNail accounting software.

Diagnosis

When you enter the invoice or time card data that applies to the purchase/work order, follow these steps:
1. Go to the query box, and enter PO and the order number into the comments column.
2. Choose Find from the Data menu to jump to that item.
3. Enter the invoice number, exact cost, and any other information that is not already there.
4. In the comments column, change the PO to x-PO or any other text you’d like to use.
5. If necessary, repeat steps 2 to 4 for each additional item in MacNail construction accounting software.

Solution

By using this system, you can use the Query box to look up items in any purchase order. For example, to find purchase order #255, clear the other cells in the Criteria, and enter ‘PO 255’ into the comments column (or ‘x-PO 255’ if it has been marked off that way).
8. If the purchase or work order applies to more than one item, repeat steps 3 to 7 for each item.

Comments
