If the item is an inventory item, you must have recorded its receipt in
Purchasing, Receiving.

Locate Purchase Order Items Available to Voucher
Your firm's purchasing staff can use different approaches to identifying all of the open purchase order line items, including change orders and releases, that are available to put into a vendor's voucher.
-
Two-way matching — This procedure uses the vendor's invoice to identify all of the item detail lines from the vendor's purchase orders that are available to voucher. To follow this approach, you need to have the vendor's invoice, but not necessary to receive the order.
This procedure usually identifies more item detail lines for a vendor than does the three-way match procedure.
-
Three-way matching — This procedure uses both the vendor's invoice and the receipt for the vendor's shipment to identify all of the item detail lines that are available to voucher. To follow this approach, you need to have the vendor's invoice and to have received the order.
This procedure usually identifies fewer item detail lines for a vendor than does the two-way match procedure.
The match method for inventory items is always three-way matching.
For either match method, Vision also displays all of the service orders for the selected vendor.

You can edit voucher line items to revise cost distribution and taxes among items if, for example, you have agreed with the vendor to adjust these amounts.

Invoice Amount must match the
Total from the
Open Amount column, plus shipping, taxes, and any extra amount. This does not affect the item's cost distribution in the purchase order.

Type must be available to the active company.
The
Type drop-down list on the vendor's Accounting tab lists those vendor types available to company xx. Each vendor type and each company have accounts associated with them. The accounts which a given company and vendor type have in common determine which vendor types are available to that company.
