Overview
The customer would like the Bill number to be displayed in the Received column on a Purchase Order and serve as the primary clickable link to the related Bill. This would make it easier to identify and access the correct Bill directly from the PO without relying on the received date as the navigation point.
Current Limitations
• The Received column currently shows only the received date as the visible reference.
• The associated Bill number is not visible unless the user clicks into the received date entry.
• Users must take an extra step to view or confirm which Bill is tied to the received items.
• Using the date as the primary link is less intuitive than using the Bill number itself.
General Example
A user reviewing received line items on a PO wants to quickly open the related Bill for verification. Today, they only see the received date, so they must click the date first to find the Bill. Showing the Bill number directly in the column would let them identify and open the correct record immediately.
Requested Enhancements
- Display the associated Bill number in the PO Received column for received items.
- Make the Bill number the primary clickable link instead of the received date.
- Preserve access to the received date as supporting information, either alongside the Bill number or as secondary detail.
- Ensure the link opens the corresponding Bill record directly for faster review and validation.
Business Value
• Reduces clicks and navigation time when reviewing PO receipts and related Bills.
• Makes the interface more intuitive by surfacing the most relevant reference value.
• Improves user efficiency when validating received items against billing records.
• Helps users identify the correct Bill faster, especially in workflows with frequent PO receiving activity.
