βοΈ Voucher Setup - Delivery of L.R.
π Overview
The Delivery of L.R. Voucher Setup allows administrators to configure how the Delivery of L.R. Entry screen behaves during the final delivery process.
After goods are booked through L.R. Entry, loaded into a Memo, transported to the destination, and received at the destination branch (if applicable), the final step is to deliver the goods to the customer. The Delivery Voucher Setup controls default values, mandatory fields, numbering methods, accounting effects, GST options, freight collection, delivery validations, and operational rules.
By configuring these options correctly, businesses can standardize the delivery process, minimize user errors, and ensure accurate accounting and freight collection.
