Curious what other folks out in the community are doing for this scenario. We use non-stocked service items fairly extensively for consumables, freight, and subcontractor charges on projects (fixed-price, items are balance, so WIP is hit and then eliminated on invoice). Essentially what we do is cut a purchase order using the non-stocked service item number, then receive and invoice it.
This works great, except that WIP is hit during purchase order invoice, not receipt. The scenario where we want to invoice the project before getting the vendor invoice back is not possible because it needs to hit WIP first.
Anyone else have any solutions out there by which a misc item (cost is always different) hits WIP on receipt?
