Today we are continuing the configuration preferences and settings in Receiving voucher.
Let’s begin:
- On your “File” menu go to “Preferences” then select “Company”.
- Select “Receiving”.

- “Receiving Voucher” section.
- Warn when receiving against PO past its Cancel Date – when you create a purchase order in QuickBooks point of sale there is a field called the “Cancel Date” so that when your vendor receives it and if they have a back order and they are unable to fulfill the purchase order before the cancel date then they should cancel it. Some vendors don’t know what they’re doing or they don’t pay attention on the cancel date and they send out the product way later and so when you’re receiving it a message will pop out and warn you that this has passed its cancel date, and so you might want to check again if you want this product or not anymore.
- Enter vendor billing information in Point of Sale – this allows you on your receiving voucher to enter the billing information which creates a bill in QuickBooks accounting.
- Printed Voucher Message – these two spaces right here are where you can type something to be a message on the voucher that gets printed out.
