it allows you flexibility @mg2017, so you can enter a bill at a different cost than the PO, in case the PO had incorrect data

al3xicon: hey Alex - just wanted to confirm something if you don't mind! is there no way I can work off the PO > Bill amount difference and have the PO as partially billed? could i possibly override the status in code?

Hmm, I don't think so off hand without also changing the quantity billed

ah ok. i guess i will just have to experiment
