Purchase Type
Use the Purchase Type activities (28.20.3) to create, view, modify, and delete codes for grouping supplier invoices for reporting, letting you track your cash expenditures for different types of expenses. For example, use EX for miscellaneous expenses and PO for purchases of raw materials or components.
You must use at least three purchase codes—for Rents, Royalties, and Non-Employee Compensation—if you are submitting 1099 tax reports. Each of these categories is summarized into a different box on the 1099 report.
