Lab Exercise: Enter Vendor Bills

Refer To: Entering Vendor Bills

How to Enter Vendor Bills Video

At this point we have ordered products from two vendors, received them into the system, and have received bills/invoices from both vendors.

We now need to enter these bills into the system. There should be two material receipts in the system, corresponding to the previous examples: One for vendor "Ethiopian Free Trade Consortium" and one to "Nuova Distribution". For this lab exercise, enter the information from the vendor bills. (Assume that you have received one from each vendor).

(You may have already entered the first bill while following the text example.)

As a reminder, the steps to enter bills into the system are:

1. Navigate to Purchases > Transactions > Bills
2. Create a new record using the + New button
3. Enter or select the vendor name in the VENDOR field on the new record
4. Click on the CREATE LINES FROM button
5. Select the corresponding Material Receipt record in the drop-down menu
6. Select the line items
7. Click the green check mark. Note the information on the bill record, such as due date and the line items in the Line Detail tab.
8. Set the document status for the bill to "Complete" using the DOCUMENT ACTION button

The bills have now been entered into the system, and are ready to be paid.
