Other Costs |
The Other Costs tab enables you to record information about other costs, such as shipping charges, associated with parts receipts.
Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on purchase order ID, vendor ID, and external PO number.
The Receipts screen supports location level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorizations to make changes or updates.
The information in the fields in the top section of this tab defines the data that displays.
