With a lot of enhancement on 9.2 version, now it’s possible to link your cross-module marketing document, such as your Sales Order and Purchase Order. It’s called Referenced Document feature.
For a better understanding, let’s discuss with this case:
- Your company want to make Sales Order document for specific customer
- You need to contact another Cargo Service Company to deliver your item to customer
- Then, you need to create Purchase Order for the procurement of cargo delivery, parallel with your Sales Order document.
- With this new feature on 9.2, you can easily make a connection between your Sales Order and Purchase Order document.
- Before adding the document, please go to Accounting Tab, click Referenced Document button
- Choose Transaction Type “Sales Order”, then select your Sales order document, click Choose.
- On Reference Information window, just click Update button
- Finally, Add your Purchase Order with click button Add
By accessing the Relationship map feature, a new option is now available for selection “Marketing Document: Referenced Documents”.

On a picture above, the relationship between the two documents can be seen through the dashed line in red, at one end there is an arrow indicating where the reference was made, on the opposite side of the red arrow you can see the referenced document.
Another useful information:
- Referenced Document consists of two tabs:
- Documents Referenced To – to specify documents to be referenced by the document
Example:
- Document Referenced By – to see which other documents are referencing the document
Example:
- Documents Referenced To – to specify documents to be referenced by the document
