Error message when posting an invoice in Business Central

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by OS-27011445-0 13
Hello! 
 
I am not able to post an invoice due to an error that I keep getting from Business Central. Never faced this issue before : The Payment Method does not exist. Identification fields and values: Code=''
 
For every other vendor there has never been such error therefore not sure how to solve it. 
Maybe someone faced the same issue before? 
 
Thank you in advance for any help!

    Is this due to customization? As far as I know, Payment Method is not a required field.
    PS: Dynamics 365 Business Central: How to check whether the current page/report is standard or customized
     
    Thanks.

    Hello,
     
    This error means Business Central is trying to validate a Payment Method Code that is mandatory but empty (Code = ‘’), usually only for that specific vendor. Check the Vendor Card → Payments FastTab and either set a valid Payment Method Code or ensure it’s not required by setup. Also verify the Purchase Invoice header (it can override the vendor) and Purchases & Payables Setup / Vendor Posting Group, as customizations or localizations may enforce payment methods. This typically happens with copied or imported vendors where the field looks empty but is still required.
