I agree that your fix is possibly a better option than what we have been doing. Our main issue is if the bill is not tied to the PO, we can't research the payments made. So we skip the item receipt for the sole purpose of having that connection. At the end of each month, I have to create a journal entry to move everything out of the inventory offset account to post the amount in the respective accounts, whether it was office supplies or costs of goods sold, etc.
