Purchase Analysis History

You use the Purchase Analysis History program to print a list of supplier purchases over the last 12 months, including the current month.

Although this report can be generated at any time, purchasing history is created after the Month end option of the AP Period End program is run. It is therefore most appropriate to generate the Purchase Analysis History report immediately after month end.
