Inventory Locations in Time Billing Invoices

Hi,

 

I have recently started using locations for my inventory and am now doing my first 'Time Billing' invoice since turning the function on. When I go to record the invoice I get the error message "One or more line items of this transaction do not have a location assigned". The problem is there is no column to select the location. Has anyone else had this problem/found a solution?

    Locations can be used to record item layout sales and purchases, adjust inventory and move item transactions.  Even though users can enable items to be included on time billing invoices, the layout of the Enter Sales window would not allow the sale of those items through locations.

     

    The only workaround to allow those items to be sold on time billing invoices would be to enable a default location for selling that item. This is done in Inventory>>Item List>>Choose the Item>>Locations tab - Default Ship/Sell/Auto-Build From Location. As a default location is added to those records it will pick up the location behind the scenes and use that for the associated transactions.
