sage instant accounts plus invoices

[LilyUK]

I have a VAT registered company and I have just started using Sage instant accounts plus.

I am entering a few suppliers invoices which have around 50 different items on each, I would like to know if it is necessary to enter each item on the invoice, or I can just enter the total of each invoice.

Thanks for all your help.

As long as you are happy for the entire purchase to go to a single nominal code and all of the items have the same VAT Code then there is no problem entering a single total.

There is no legal requirment at all for the seperate line items to be involved.

As John also suggested, aslong as all VAT codes are the same for each line you could enter no details as long as the total is correct.

The details section on Sage under suppliers, is mainly for your crossreference incase any accountancy queries pop up with a supplier.

Personally i would keep a copy of all invoices and use minumum amount of time on supplier invoices.

Cheers.
