We are looking to add in a more defined 3 way match process (PO, Goods Receipt, Invoice) to ensure quantities and values all align.

To help with this, we wanted to get advice on the following three items:

1. is there a way for a supplier invoice to not be posted to our accounting system (Xero) until the 3 way match is done in Breww?

2. when raising an inventory receipt, can the default option (or only option) be to set up a blank inventory receipt so then amounts need to be added manually?

3. could you consider implementing an automatic check that ensures all quantities and values align based on uploaded documents?

Hi Murray, Thanks for your message, and welcome to the community!

1. Breww will be able to post an inventory receipt to Xero as a bill at the point you select the **‘Invoiced by supplier’** button on the IR; so, this will allow you to check that your inventory receipt is correct, and this matches the supplier invoice before selecting this button.

2. You can create a blank IR by selecting **Stock items \> Goods in \> Inventory receipts \> New inventory receipt** , and then selecting the **Related purchase order**.

3. If you would like to see a new feature added to Breww to improve this process, it would be great if you could raise this with the team as a feature request [here](https://community.breww.com/t/posting-ideas-feature-requests-for-breww/22). Let me know if you need anything else!
