Match Lines Dialogue Box

The Match Lines dialogue box contains a series of grids (the Purchase Line grid; the VAT Analysis grid; and Line Analysis grid) enabling each purchase order item line to be fully Matched (or Partially-matched).

Purchase Lines:

Type: The Goods/Service Type code for the purchase order item line (initially set up in the Purchasing Goods/Service table within Miscellaneous Options). This column cannot be edited.

Description: Displays the first line of any item description that is entered in the Line desc/notes field within the Purchase Line form. This column cannot be edited.

Registration: A specific vehicle registration number may be linked to an individual purchase order item line. If this link is made then the registration number may be displayed here.

Value: The net value of the purchase order line. This column cannot be edited.

VAT: The VAT value of the purchase order line. This column cannot be edited.

Net O/S: The net outstanding value of the purchase order line (This is typically the same as the Value field; however, this line may already have been partially-matched on a previous occasion and may contain a lower value). This column cannot be edited.

VAT O/S: The outstanding VAT value of the purchase order line (This is typically the same as the VAT field; however, this line may already have been partially-matched on a previous occasion). This column cannot be edited.

V: The single digit VAT code. This column cannot be edited.

Matched: This is the key field within the form and is used for entering the actual net value of the purchase order line as stated on the received invoice.

VAT: This column is used for entering the actual VAT value of the purchase order line as stated on the received invoice. The system defaults-in a calculated VAT value derived from the value input into the Matched field; however, this may be overridden with what is held on the received invoice.

M: If the actual Matchedand VAT columns equal the expected (Value and VAT fields) values from the Purchase Order then the system automatically ticks this column as being Matched.

VAT Analysis:

This area of the form displays a brief summary of the data entered in the previous Match Invoice form, namely:

Net Value: The net value of the supplier's invoice.

Invoice VAT: The total VAT value of the supplier's invoice.

Line Analysis:

This area of the form displays the column totals for both the Matched and VAT columns in the Purchase Lines area of the form i.e. the total net value and the total VAT value taken from the supplier's invoice.

The net values and the VAT values from the Line Analysis area should correspond exactly to the net values and VAT values from the VAT analysisarea.

COMMAND BUTTONS:

Match: Confirms that the values balance and the system displays a confirmation message: Purchase Invoice posted and the system returns to the main Purchasing form.

Tip: For the postings that are made see the Purchasing Processes form.

Cancel: Returns to the Purchasing form without matching the invoice.

Help: Displays online context-sensitive help using the default browser.
