Purchase invoice's View mode doesn't show "Freight-in" text

1

This relates to manager version 22.1.14.

When I create or amend a Purchase Invoice and enter a line for “Freight-in”, I select the “Freight-in” option under Item and enter the value in “Unit price”. Then click “Create” or “Amend” as appropriate.
The document is then displayed in “View” mode and I expected the text “Freight-in” to be displayed in the “Description”, but it’s blank. So, I have to enter it manually in the description.

Is this the intended behaviour or am I missing something?

I searched this forum and read a post from way back in 2018, where @Tut explained how the Purchase Invoice Line item “Description” contents were dependent on whether an item was selected from the list or it was just an account or if the text was manually entered in the 'Description". I understood this to mean if no description is entered manually then the item text is displayed in View mode.

@twodogzz , as far as I know you cannot do anything ‘default’ with freight-in, including a default tax code for it. Very annoying!

Thanks for your comment. Sorry to hear you have another issue with the function.

The freight-in feature works very well for me as per the Guide.
However, I expected to see Freight-in in the description, instead of me having to type it in there.

I was talking about that, I just mentioned the other as an aside.

Oh, okay. It’s not just me then! Good to know.
I’ll mention it as an improvement “Idea” and see what happens.
