Bills - Make "Include Open POs" Option Available for Bills from POs / Item Receives

When a new Bill is made from either the main sidebar  menu (Purchases | Bills) or from a Vendor page (New Transaction | Purchases | Bills), the following option is available at the end of the line item breakdown of the Bill:

When clicked, this opens up a dialog box that allows the user to choose which POs and/or Item Receives should be added to the Bill:


This process allows one to enter a Bill that spans across several different POs and/or Item Receives. Works very well.

However, the problem is that if one initiates a Bill from a PO or Item Receive, that option is not available to add line items from other POs. It should be there.

My staff prefers to initiate a Bill from a PO. That's a natural work process, and it doesn't seem like there's a good reason to not allow the addition of items from other POs when a bill is initiated in this manner.

This is an odd quirk that is not intuitive; in fact, it seems like Zoho would have to go out of its way to code it like this. Please eliminate this unnecessary restriction to make it easier for users to enter Bills.
