While importing a purchase transaction I have encountered an error stating that items with only sales information cannot be added. What should I do?

You will be able to associate an item in a purchase transaction if purchase information is enabled for that item. If it is not enabled, you will face an error while importing. Here’s how you rectify:

• Go to the Items module and click Items.
• Locate the item for which you are facing the error and click Edit. Scroll down to the Purchase Information section and enable the checkbox against this field.
• Specify the Cost Price, associate the Purchase Account, and provide a Description.
• Click Save to update your preferences for the item.

Now, you can try importing the file again.
