Create sales invoice for costs

Costs can not be stored in a warehouse. Costs are generated and consumed at the same time. It is therefore impossible to automate the invoicing for costs as for goods. Sales invoices (CIN) created from costs, need to be entered manually in the CIN application.

CINs for costs will always have location XXX and this can not be changed. This means that no items on an invoice for costs can be connected to a warehouse.

You can only select costs (articles with class X) and/or services (articles with class V) when adding items to an invoice for costs. No goods can be invoiced on a sales invoice for costs.
