Marlin GTX enables the recording of supplier invoices, expenses and assets using the Purchases module.
The Purchases module can be accessed by selecting Main > Data Entry > Purchases from the menu bar.
The Purchases module can also be used with Delivery Dockets to receive stock before invoicing.
See the Delivery Dockets help guide for further information.
