Purchase bills overview

Goal

Understand purchase bills (supplier invoices) in the purchasing cycle.

Cycle

1. Optional purchase quote → convert to order.
2. Purchase order → approve (if required) → receive (stock + GRNI) and/or bill.
3. Purchase bill is drafted then posted (purchasing.post) — GL + remaining stock receive (or clear GRNI). Optional display option: also act as goods receipt.
4. Payment posts immediately on create (payments.manage) and allocates to open bills.
5. Corrections: debit note from a posted bill (not silent delete).
