If the expense is applied to a purchase order, it will disregard the general ledger account selected and use the Expenses on Unfinished Purchase Orders account, and from there will be distributed to the correct Stock on Hand – Stock GL Group accounts. A branch (if branches are enabled), sub-branch or GL Department cannot be selected if the expense is applied to a purchase order. |
