I created a Purchase Order, then an Item Receipt, and finally a Vendor Bill — all with the same items, quantities, amounts, and analytics. However, when I try to save the Vendor Bill, I get the error: "No matching PO can be found for the vendor bill." We are using NetSuite’s standard 3-Way Matching, and everything seems correct. Can you help me understand why this is happening?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Based on the conversations, there could be several reasons why you're encountering the error "No matching PO can be found for the vendor bill." when trying to save the Vendor Bill. 1. Mismatch in Quantities or Amounts: Ensure that the quantities and amounts in the Purchase Order, Item Receipt, and Vendor Bill match exactly. Even a slight discrepancy can cause this error. 2. Accounting Preferences: Check your accounting preferences. Under Accounting Preference > Order Management > Receiving, there's an option 'Use Purchase Order Rate on Bills'. If this is enabled, the system will use the rate from the Purchase Order when creating the Vendor Bill, regardless of the rate on the Item Receipt. 3. Advanced Receiving: If you're using Advanced Receiving, it might be causing the issue. Advanced Receiving separates the receiving and billing functions, which can sometimes cause discrepancies. 4. Vendor Selection: Ensure that the correct vendor is selected when creating the Vendor Bill. If the vendor on the Vendor Bill doesn't match the vendor on the Purchase Order, you'll encounter this error. Remember to double-check all these points and ensure everything matches up correctly. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
