What you're seeing
You have a purchase order with items that shipped separately, so the vendor sent you more than one invoice. ServiceTitan allows only one vendor document number per PO/bill, so you can't record all of the vendor's invoice numbers on the single bill.
Why this happens
Reason 1
A single bill carries one vendor document (invoice) number.
When a vendor sends multiple invoices for one PO, you need a separate bill for each invoice number.
How to fix it
Complete both steps in order: record the first invoice, then record each additional invoice.
1Record the first invoice
Go to the PO in ServiceTitan.
Find the Vendor document number field on the bill of the PO.
Enter the vendor invoice number for the first item.
You can also upload the invoice document as a PDF on the bill.
2Record additional invoices
Cancel the bill or the receipt of the PO to bring it back to pending status.
Receive one item from the PO. This lets you add the vendor invoice number for that specific item.
Use Return to PO and repeat for each remaining item with its own vendor invoice number. This gives you multiple bills on the same PO, each with a unique vendor invoice number.
✓ Done · Each vendor invoice is recorded on its own bill against the same PO, with the correct vendor invoice number on each.
Note (QuickBooks Desktop): After recording the invoices in ServiceTitan, make sure the payment stub in QuickBooks Desktop reflects the different invoice numbers. You may need to manually adjust the payment details in QuickBooks Desktop to match the separate bills created in ServiceTitan.
Still not working?
If you can't record the separate invoices correctly, contact ServiceTitan Technical Support at go.servicetitan.com/ask with:
The purchase order number and the vendor
The vendor invoice numbers you're trying to record
Whether your account auto-generates a bill for each receipt
Your accounting integration (for example, QuickBooks Desktop)
