Hello Richard, You can use an AP transaction instead of doing the whole PO/Vendor Invoice approach. The AP transaction can be used for expense accounts (such as the general "Office Supplies") rather than COGS accounts which are used for invoices. So, when purchasing goods or services for resale, use a PO/Vendor Invoice, but for general expenses use an AP transaction (you will still need to set up the supplier as a vendor, however - the only way to avoid this is to use a GL transaction, I believe).
