UPDATE ERROR to Purchasing Receipt Form

@cwilliams23 Total cost filed is invisible in the code you can ask developer to enable it with a small customization.

A little bit more on the Total Cost field in Purchase Receipt:

The Total Cost has been removed from the Purchase Receipt header on the 2024R1 version.

Please see below a link to the Release Notes for more information:

Our development team has removed this field since Purchase Receipt is not a financial document and all financial information has been excluded from this form. 

This field was not recalculating if the cost or quantity was changed in any line which had a discount applied. Only an approximate value was displayed. 

Vendor bills will have exact amounts of the PO.

The actual amount was recalculating to the correct amount when any discount or changes were applied. The correct amount of the invoices was shown in the Total Cost field. We bill by project not by product. 

It is assumptive that vendors always have the correct amount on the bills. At least 20% contain incorrect pricing. I could list the reason, however we use it for cost verification. 

Can you please tell which section specifically states the deletion in the form.

We also use it to verify the RTV costs when returning material to the vendor. I hope that it will be optional as it was a valuable asset!

@SheriThomas49 @Manikanta Dhulipudi I have the same problem, and need a fix. Suggestions? Person entering POs and person receiving POs do not have the same process logic and access, so they cannot verify if totals match between PO and Receipt. Also, revising POs all the time is not a viable solution, especially with Drop-ship links, and any case of shortages or incorrect pricing due to a human error or other reason.

Please advise.

We would like to have the total cost added back to PO Receipts as well.  I understand that the PO Receipt is not a financial document but it is creating a financial document in the form of a Vendor Bill in Payables.  If the cost on a PO Receipt is changed, the Bill is generated using that cost, not the cost on the Purchase Order.  

Perhaps it would be better to make the cost field on PO Receipts uneditable so the PO cost is what is used to generate the Bill, while at the same time, allowing the user processing the PO Receipt to verify the total cost on the vendor invoice received.  Our SOP would instruct the user entering the PO Receipt to keep the PO Receipt On Hold if the Total Cost does not match and inquire with the purchasing agent to research any discrepancy prior to the Bill being generated..
