Create Purchase Invoice
You can create a Purchase Invoice for a Catch Weight Item manually without the Purchase Order. The Weight Quantity (KG) field in the Purchase Invoice page is calculated from the Document Weight Lines.
The Weight Quantity (KG) is updated based on the Net Weight when the value of Quantity (Base) is changed on the Purchase Invoice.

The selected line is updated in the Item Charge Assignment (Purch) page. You can view related weight information in the fields such as Weight Qty. to Receive, Weight Qty.

The system calculates and distributes the item charges based on the following formula: (Receipt line Quantity / Total Quantity of all receipt lines) X Total Item Charge Amount For example,
- Direct Unit Cost Incl. VAT = 200
- First receipt line quantity = 40
- Second receipt line quantity = 70
- Total quantity = 40 + 70 = 110
Then the system applies the formula as follows:
- Cost Amount (Actual) for the first receipt line = (40/110) X 200 = 72.73
- Cost Amount (Actual) for the second receipt line = (70/110) X 200 = 127.27
These calculated values are reflected in the Cost Amount (Actual) field on the relevant value entries.
If the same line includes multiple lots, the system performs the same calculation based on the weight quantity of each lot and sums the amounts for the complete line.
If only one line exists and it is a catch weight item, the system assigns the entire item charge to that line. If that line includes multiple lots, the system calculates and distributes the charge across lots using the same weight-based calculation.
This functionality works similarly for the purchase credit memos.
