### **Creating a Purchase Voucher and Testing the Configuration**

* Now, let's create a **new purchase voucher** to see how the configured rate difference works.
* Retrieve the **Purchase Order (PO)** in the voucher.
* Suppose the **rate quoted in the PO was ₹1,000**, but the **rate charged in the purchase voucher is ₹1,100**.
* The software will **automatically generate a prompt** displaying the rate difference of ₹100.
* This amount represents the difference between the **quoted purchase order rate and the charged rate**, as defined in the configuration.
