I'm trying to get the printed Purchase order to show received quantity for items

I'm trying to get the printed Purchase order to have a Received QTY column that will show the quantity received for items on the PO. It displays on the screen, but I'd like the information to show on the printed PO. Thank you.

I'm trying to get the printed Purchase order to show received quantity for items

Good morning, @jpp84z4

 

It's great to see you back in the Community. Let's work together to get this issue taken care of. 

 

The problem maybe that you need to edit your Purchase Order template. This will help you include all the information you'd like on the printed template. Here's a guide below that can assist you with the steps if need be: 

 

Use and customize form templates

 

Also, be sure that the printed box is checked off as well so that it will show the changes you made to be included on the Purchase Order. 

 

If you have any trouble along the way, don't hesitate to reach back out to me. I'm always here to lend a helping hand. Have a wonderful Friday!

Hi Candice,

I'm familiar with customizing the PO template. The problem is that when in the template and using the additional customization tab there is no column for Received or Back Ordered to check the box for either Screen or Print. We are using QuickBooks Premier Contractor Edition 2021 which we just upgraded in November 2021. Do you have any other information so that we can correct the situation.

Thanks,

Jim

Thanks for the screenshot, Jim.

 

I know a workaround to include a Received or Back-ordered column.

 

You can use the Other 2 field and rename the Title to the information you want to show up.

 

 

Also, check out this article to know more about handling POs in QBDT: Manage purchase orders in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

That should do it. I'll be around Jim whenever you need help managing purchase orders or any QuickBooks concerns.
