Operations Menu - Purchase Invoice - Item Search
You can use this function to search for Items that you can then add to the Purchase Invoice. This function is therefore an alternative to the 'Paste Special' feature. Place the insertion point in the Item field in any row and then select 'Item Search' from the Operations menu. The following window opens:
- Search for
- Enter here the string (e.g. part of an Item Number or Name) that you are looking for. You must make an entry in this field, otherwise no search will be carried out.
- Classification
- Paste Special
Item Classifications setting, Sales Ledger
- If you enter an Item Classification here, the search for the string that you specified in the field above will be restricted to Items belonging to that Classification.
- Search In
- Specify the field in which you want to search.
Press [Run] to activate the search. A report will be printed to screen, listing the Items found. If you click on an Item Number in the report, the Item will be added to the Purchase Invoice in the first empty row. You can keep the report open and click on more Item Numbers to have more Items added to the Invoice.
If the 'Search for Item' window does not appear when expected, the probable reason is that you did not click in the Item field in a Purchase Invoice row before selecting the function from the Operations menu.
