Entering Purchases directly |
|
Topic: Banking Overview Sometimes you want to be able to enter multiple purchases without having to set up associated Suppliers and Cash Purchase Documents. For these types of 'simple' cash purchases, provided they come from a single Bank, Credit card or Petty Cash account, you can use a Purchases Document from the associated account. This is very similar to a normal Cash Purchase, but has no associated Supplier.
When to use it Use this Document when you want to Enter multiple purchases from the same account (e.g. your company Bank Account), and do not want to set up a Supplier Document and associated Cash Purchase Document for each individual purchase.

Notice also that we assign an Expense to each purchase.
