Hy all,

can anybody explain what the difference and usecase is these Journal types is?

I read this Ledger journal types - Finance | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Docs, but there is no "Vendor Invoice" explained.

I used "Vendor Invoice" but it does not appear in AP/Invoice/Invoice journal when I create new Journal.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    Vendor invoice recording is for vendor invoice journal.

    Vendor invoice register is for invoice register process.

    Vendor invoice is for while you are doing vendor invoice from PO.

    When we keep these journal type then the journal will be available into the respective module process explained above.

    Hi Andreas,

    Vendor invoice you can find when you click on PO > Invoice OR Accounts payable > Invoices > Pending vendor invoices.

    This is basically to record the stock / inventory purchases. Where as other journals invoice journal or invoice register deals with non-inventory transactions. However, we can link PO to invoice register. Here is the link to get more information.

    There are two types of purchase Invoices:

    Purchase order based: Use Vendor Invoice (AP > Invoices > Pending Vendor Invoices)

    Non Purchase order Invoices : Use vendor Invoice Journal ( Journal type is Vendor Invoice recording)

    Apart from this you can also record Vendor invoices using (This type is used when you do not want to post Invoice to actual expenditure account and you just want to park invoice) :

    Step-1: Vendor Invoice Register (Accounts are picked from vendor posting profile, Journal type Invoice register)

    Step-2: Extract Invoice register entry using "Vendor Invoice Approval" Journal ( reverse the entry from Invoice register and post to actual Main accounts
