Name of Feature/Request: To allow negative amount to Bill and Received Items (Bill Pending)
What financial, time savings, or quality of life improvements will occur from this: To allow negative amount to Bill and Received Items (Bill Pending) | Frequency: Once a week | Customer deals with PO that has a vendor discount item on it. This PO has been received in several item receipts and the system is not letting them save and close, it gives this error "Received Items (Bill Pending) Total cannot be negative.
It is Importsant to be able to save a negative amount on a Bill related to a Purchase Order when dealing with vendor discounts because the system needs to accurately reflect the total cost of received items versus the discount applied. In this scenario, the customer has a PO that includes a vendor discount item and has been partially received through several item receipts. Without the ability to record a negative total, Striven prevents saving the bill, giving the error ‘Received Items (Bill Pending) Total cannot be negative.’ Allowing a negative amount ensures the bill can be closed correctly, the vendor discount is accounted for, and the financial records accurately reflect the transaction.
Attempted Solutions So Far: Divide the discount into five equal parts and apply one part to each of the five bills. This will prevent the total from becoming negative
