Hi, I am trying to post a Purchase Order that has a 100% Prepayment amount and has been fully received.
 
"There is nothing to post because the document does not contain a quantity or amount."
 
The PO has been fully received but not put-away.
The prepayment invoice has been paid.

    Using Purchase Invoice works as a workaround. The finance team initially tried to do it that way they were getting error:  "Amount must be negative in Gen. Journal Line Journal Template Name=’’,Journal Batch Name=’’,Line No.=‘0’." This was a process issue. Our finance team were adding the GL Prepaid account manually to the Purchase Order. Which gave the error when posting. Remove the manually added GL Line solved the problem. The GL Line was added automatically to the Posted Purchase Invoice.
     
    Prepmt Amt to Deduct Excl. VAT reduced to 0.
     
     
    Not sure why posting from the Purchase Order still gives the error: "There is nothing to post because the document does not contain a quantity or amount." Confirmed with another test PO.

    Are You pressing Post and then selecting Invoice? 
    Could be You have selected Receive and Invoice.


    Also a bit weird is the Prepayment Amount to deduct still shows value. 
    If it was properly received and payment is assigned to the prepayment invoice, this column should be 0, and it should show Prepayment Amount deducted. 
    Also You can check Statistics page of this PO, in the Prepayment section if all is well.

    If you create a Purchase Invoice, and then use Get Receipt Lines... to post an invoice for this line, is there a problem?
     
    This looks like a customization issue.
