When I pick up items at many of my vendors, I use the "recieve items" window to input the inventory items or expenses from this transaction. I will do this several times throughout a billing period, then at the vendor sends me a bill. I then use "Enter bill for received items" to pay for those items. Unfortunately I will see individual listings for each occassion that I purchased from that vendor and I must select them one at a time. Isn't there some way to keep a running tally of items through the month and then assign them all to one invoice when it arrives?
Example... Today I go to Vendor A and purchase 10 widgets on invoice 1001 then tomorrow I purchase 10 more widgets on invoice 1002 then at the end of the month I get a statement from Vendor A which lists Invoice 1001 & Invoice 1002 and give a total amount to pay. If I use the system described above, I will have
2 invoices or item receipts to assign to 1 bill but QB only lets me select one at a time.
