Create Bill for Purchase Order

We need to retrieve the Purchase Order. For each line_item, we need to match the item_id on the PO to the item_id on the bill we created.

Purchase Order has Purchase Receives
We need to get the “PurchaseReceives” (PR) in PO. For each line_item, we need to match the item_id on the PO to the item_id on the PR, then we match the line_item_id, quantity on the PR to the receive_item_id, quantity on the bill. If Some lines don't have receive_item_id, set all /bill/line_items/purchaseorder_item_id = empty
Purchase Order has no Purchase Receives
Continue send bill without modify.
