Purchase History

Use the Purchase History command report on purchase data held for previous accounting periods. When you use the End of Period command on the Utilities submenu of the Purchase module, purchase analysis information is transferred to a history file where it remains until you remove it using the Tidy History command.

You define your own history reports using the Set Options command on the Action menu associated with the Purchase History form and can contain any combination of the following:

• Account

• Type

• Analysis

• Purchase (Supply) Code

• Invoice No.

In the case of the supply code, you can also choose by range of characters. For example, the first four characters or the last six characters, and so on. Each of the options is identified by a letter and you can use a combination of up to four per report. When you print reports, selection criteria are available for a more precise selection of records.
