Hi,

The System does not automatically populate the configured expense account for non-stock item when creating a PO  

 

Item Level Expense Account defined

 

Greatly appreciated your help and thanks in advance.

Hi ​@Thadee24 ,

Since, you are selected non stock item in PO Line, I would like to suggest you check ‘Post Cost to Expense’ Field in relevant non-stock item’s Price/Cost Tab. If it is defined as Sales, this is an expected behavior of the system. Because according to your item GL setup there is no expense accrual account defined

If Post Cost to Expense is Sales, Expense Accrual Account will be selected as account for relevant line instead of defined Expense Account.
