Invoices

The Stock Locations Value Pack adds a Location field to the 'Delivery' card of the Invoice screen. This operates in a similar manner to that on the Order screen described here.

In the case of Invoices created from Orders, the Location field has no effect. In this situation, the Invoice is only a Sales Ledger transaction: the reduction of stock is done in the Delivery.

In the case of Invoices that do not have a related Order, the stock that will be used to satisfy an Invoice will be taken from the specified Location. If there is insufficient stock in the Location, you will not be able to approve the Invoice if you are using the Do Not Allow Over Delivery option in the Stock Settings setting. When you approve these Invoices, the value of the Items listed in the grid will credited to the Stock Account of the Location specified on the 'Delivery' card. If this Account is blank, the Stock Account for the Item Group to which the individual Items belong (if you are using the Use Item Groups for Cost Accounts option in the Cost Accounting setting) or the Stock Account from the Account Usage Stock setting will be used. The value of any Plain Items in the Invoice will not be included.

As in the Order, if you have specified a Main Location in the Stock Settings setting, leaving the Location field blank means that stock from the Main Location will be used. Unlike the Order, however, if you are using the Require Location option in the same setting, you must enter a Location before you can save the Invoice.
