Default the line item's receipt required field to "YES"

 

When adding a line item with line type SERVICE to a PO, the line item's receipt required field defaults to "NO". Can we make this field default to YES for every line item?

Answer

If you don't change it manually to "YES", then you can create and approve an invoice for the
line item without ever having received it. Having to set the
field manually every time you order a service makes it prone to error.

To have it default to YES use the following steps:

Goto Administration / Organizations and pull up the organization you wish this to apply to. Then use the Select Action dropdown to select Purchasing Options / PO Options. In here you will see an option called "Allow Receipts against Services by Default" - please check this option and save your changes. Then logout and back in and the default will be set to YES.
