We use PO's for all items including non stock/inventory purchases such as supplies. My example is:
Item 700141, coded as non stock
category 70000, acct set 3
Account set 3 uses clearing AP clearing account 21208,non-stock clearing account 21252
Category 70000 has 65310 for all GL - (shipping Expense)

What I thought should happen is that when I receive item 700141, it would debit expense 65310 and credit 21252. When invoice is entered, it should debit 21252 and credit AP control account.

But what is happening on receipt, 21252 is debited for the receipt amount and 21208 is credited. On invoice entry, 21208 is debited and the AP control account is credited. The amount does not go to the 65310 expense account.

So, where did I go wrong? For non stock items, I have assigned several categories with corresponding GL expense.
