How to post invoices in Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Hello everyone!

I am working in Microsoft Dynamic NAV (Legal) and trying to post invoice for the vendor (purchase invoice). However, when I am trying to do so, the following mistake appears:

I have already selected Payment Method Code and Payment Terms but it still will not post the invoice. For the refference: I just want to post the invoice on the vendor side without paying it first : so one side vendor, the other side expense, and then once the payment is made - credit bank ,debit vendor.

What would you recommend to do or apply here?

Its seems that some custom code is generating this error. have you done any customization in past, if yes, than you need look at that.

If you can, post a full-sized screenshot (redacted as needed) of the Purchase Invoice so we can look it over.

That message is from a customization you have. It's hard for us to say what information you're missing on the order without knowing how the customization works. You should ask the developer that created it for help

As other experts have mentioned, this does not appear to be a standard error; please contact your partner for assistance.

Hello ,

That error doesn’t mean NAV is trying to force a payment; it means the vendor’s payment setup is incomplete. Even when you only want to post a purchase invoice (Dr expense / Cr vendor), NAV requires valid Purch./Payment Information on the Vendor Card, not just on the invoice. Make sure the vendor has a Payment Method Code that doesn’t require missing data, a Preferred Vendor Bank Account if the method needs it, and that the vendor bank account isn’t blocked. Payment Terms alone are not enough—once the vendor’s payment method and bank setup are valid, the invoice will post normally without paying it.

Regards,

Hi,

This seems to be a custom code error. This one is not standard.
