You can also add a 'Supplier Delivery Note' to the Purchase Receipt if your Supplier has added some notes. Using the 'Edit Posting Date and Time' checkbox you can edit the posting time and date of the Purchase Receipt. By default, the date and time are set when you click on the New button.

Changing the value of Items post Purchase Receipt:
Sometimes, certain expenses that add to the total of your purchased Items are known only after a while. Common example is, if you are importing the Items, you will come to know of Customs Duty, etc only when your “Clearing Agent” sends you a bill. If you want to attribute this cost to your purchased Items, you will have to use the Landed Cost Voucher. Why “Landed Cost”? Because it represents the charges that you paid when it landed in your possession.
