Dev - Invoice Posting: Supplies

[David E. Jones]

Hello All (and especially Si?),

This is somewhat accounting (GL posting) related, but starts much  
earlier in the ordering process, so I'll start the question here...

Quick (hopefully...) question: is there any way to create a purchase  
order so that when the invoice based on it is posted it will post as  
supplies instead of as inventory? I only vaguely remember talking  
about this way back when, and just got a question about this and I'm  
not sure if it was ever implemented. I was thinking there should be a  
different OrderItemType for this, but looking at the list I didn't  
see anything like that...

If there isn't any way that anyone knows of, this is probably where  
I'll start.

-David

David,

I checked our code.  You can use either a new OrderItemType or new
ProductType or both, but the important thing is to create a new
InvoiceItemType for these things.  Then you can either get fancy by
setting an organizationPartyId-specific GlAccount in the
InvoiceItemTypeGlAccount entity or get lazy by setting the
defaultGlAccountId in InvoiceItemType.
