Feature Details

Fundamentals has resolved an issue where attachments on Purchase Orders could only be opened on the last Purchase Invoice created from the original PO. Now attachments can be opened from any invoice from the original PO.

Example -

User enters a Purchase Order with a quantity of 10 and attaches a PDF file to the PO. The user gets an initial invoice from the vendor for half the order. User Receives and Invoices a quantity of 5 and creates invoice INV001.

The user receives a second invoice from the vendor for the remaining order. The user Receives and Invoices the remaining quantity balance of 5 and creates a second invoice INV002.

Previously, if the user tried to open the original PO attachments on invoice INV001, nothing would happen and they would not be able to see the documents. The user would need to go to INV002 to open the attachments.

Now the user can go to INV001 or INV002 and open the files Both invoices will be redirected the same attachment file links.
