Hello,
 
For a long time I have been wondering, if it is somehow possible to send a confirmation form the system, which informs a vendor that we have settled vendor invoice with credit note? As an example let's say that vendor issued credit note to our company due to poor quality of product from last shipment they had sent to us. Credit note was issued for 50 euros. We have some outstanding invoices, which we need to pay to this vendor. We have decided we want to settle one of those invoices with credit note. We decided to settle one of the invoices with balance of 100 euros with credit note mentioned above. We can process this operation in settle transactions however I do not see any option to generation ,,Settlement document''. It seems a little bit odd that it is not possible to generate such documents when it is possible to process vendor/customer netting. Does anyone know what could be used to generate such document?
 
Best regards, Michal

    While vendor/customer netting allows document generation, standard settlements do not include this feature. If this is a frequent requirement, customization might be the best approach.

    There is no out-of-the-box functionality to automatically generate and send a settlement confirmation document for vendor invoice and credit note settlements. However, you have a few workarounds:
    Workarounds:
    1. Vendor Account Statement:
      • Navigate to Accounts payable > Inquiries and reports > Vendor > Vendor statement
      • Generate a vendor statement showing the settlement transactions.
      • Send it to the vendor as confirmation.
    2. Vendor Transactions Report:
      • Navigate to Accounts payable > Inquiries and reports > Vendor > Vendor transactions
      • Filter by the relevant vendor and settlement transactions.
      • Export the report and share it with the vendor.
    3. Custom Report or Workflow:
      • If a formal settlement confirmation is required, you can create a custom report using SSRS or Power Automate to generate and email a settlement confirmation when a credit note is applied to an invoice.
