Accounting Ideas

When entering purchase invoices, there is a field called 'Description' where brief info about what the purchase is, BUT this does NOT appear in any report especially the Purchase Daybook report.

When examining the Purchase Daybook report and submission of that to our accountants, it is essential to easily see what a purchase is for rather than a lengthy process to query an invoice through other Sage utilities such as running a list of purchase invoice for a date range - which cannot be exported.

Like many we will have near a thousand purchase over a year, many on-off suppliers where we know the product but can't recall who we bought from. Even in the Purchase invoice listing, it is not possible to search under words in the details field. Such things can be done in Quickbooks and others as a basic function.
