Entering payable invoices
Consider the following points when entering payable invoices:
- When using the Inventory module, you can assign inventory to a specific location.
- To track parts using the serial numbers, enter each part as a separate item. Then for each item, enter the serial number in the Part Serial# box. Sage 100 Contractor does not check for duplicate entry of serial numbers.
- If you enter an invoice using information from a purchase order, the sales tax will automatically default into the invoice. You can choose to deactivate the automatic sales tax feature and to enter the sales tax manually.
