You can only do this if the " Reports & Settings Maintenance Options System Administrator Platinum Settings Contract Costings Links Purchase Ledger" is set to 'Yes'.

More Information

Invoices or Credit Notes related to Contracts are posted in " Purchase Ledger Purchase Ledger Postings". For help with this, see here.

Create the document that you require and once you have accepted the document, you will see [Purchase Ledger Link - CC].

• Enter the 'Contract number' to which this document relates.
• Enter the Category of item on the document that you have posted, e.g. 'MAT' for "Material".
• Enter the Quantity of the item.
• Enter the Nett amount of the item.
• Press <Esc> and accept the changes.

The document that you have posted may be for more than one Category of Cost so you can repeat this process until you have allocated the whole document or leave an amount un-allocated if necessary.

Once you have finished allocating amounts, press <Esc> twice to exit and post the next purchase document.
