Configure Purchasing converted quantity or price on Construction purchase orders

You can enter opposite values on entry lines when converting a Purchasing document.

For example, if you entered a line on a Purchasing order for 100 units, converted 50 units, then determined the original conversion should be 25, you can convert the order again to add a negative 25 units for that line and select the Reverse conversion checkbox. This conversion corrects the original converted 50 to 25 and creates a new invoice with a credit for that line. When you select to allow reverse conversions (reductions), you can show previous fully converted lines to help you determine which lines to reverse.

Construction subscription is needed. To enable a Construction subscription, contact your Sage Intacct account manager. Regional support for Construction is limited to the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

  1. Configure Purchasing non-Construction options.
  2. Select the following Construction reverse conversion options:

    • Include fully converted lines on a new document during conversion.

      Converts a document. Any lines from the original that were already fully converted appear so you can either leave them or reverse convert, if needed.

    • Enable conversion reversal (reduction) for non-inventory items.

      Reverse converts a Purchasing document. After enabling this option, assign the Purchasing permission to reverse conversion.

      When you enable reverse conversions, a Convert link appears for all order documents, even if the document has been fully converted. You can only reverse (reduce) conversion on lines with non-inventory items. Items set as available for dropship, buy to order or stockable kits are ineligible for reverse conversion (reduction). To reverse (reduce) a converted entry line, you can only enter an opposite sign from the sign used in the original entry.
