Purchasing & Inventory:

Fourth Customer Success Portal
Hi all,   A question from the lovely @Selina Routh​:   ​How do we process orders where the vendor we place the order with is different than the vendor who delivers and invoices us? For example, we place orders with Coastal but the delivery and invoicing comes from Southern Wine & Spirits?     Best, Rozz Fourth

Good morning @Selina Routh​,

Thank you for your query.

 

Alternative Vendor order vs. delivery payment is normally a function of Accounts Payable as opposed to Fourth Purchasing & Inventory (previously Adaco).

 

Using your example, you could either:

  • Create the PR, PO, & Receive against Coastal, then in A/P simply pay by the legal name Southern Wine & Spirits

or

  • Create the PR, PO, & Receive against Southern Wine & Spirits then pay them in A/P*

*This approach may require manually separating PRs/POs by 'vendor' or your individual Sales reps agreeing that they will separate single POs on their side into multiple Invoices

 

Please let us know if you have any further questions on this topic.

Agreed with David. We use Coastal at our Miami location and we just group them under Southern Wine & Spirits in Adaco. We may have multiple emails that get the PO, but they will divide it between themselves after we send it. From an AP perspective, they are the same, so we kept it that way in Adaco.
