retrieve docs from GL transactions

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi

I am new to Dynamics and was wondering if there is a way to drill down to the original invoice for example from within a view screen for a GL account.

For example

the auditors wish to have a copy of the invoices relating to the fixed asset purchases (in our case GL code 10300) I am wondering if there is a way to view the invoice document attached to the transaction. I have been told I can do this via viewing the supplier transactions but no one has been able to tell me if its possible through GLtransactions.

Thanks

Rick

    On the general ledger entries page you will find a button called "Find Entries". Use that to drilldown and retrieve related postings to the "Document No.".

    If the invoice has an incoming document against it you can view this from either the posted invoice document page or from the general ledger entry itself:

    Hi

    Thanks for taking the time to reply

    I can see the transactions by going to the relevant GL account but I cant seem to open the transaction up to view the screens you show from within the GL screen.

    I was hoping there would be a link from the view entry screen to the invoice so I could create a folder with the copies of the relevant documents in it so the auditor could look at the values within the GL code and see the backup invoices in the folder.

    I am used to a system whereby clicking on the transaction would bring up the details of the transaction including any links to attached documents regardless of which Ledger they originated from ie view transactions option shows list of transactions within GL click on transaction to see transaction detail click on attachment link and see document, option to copy/save attachment, is there anything like this in BC ? if not what is easiest route to finding source document attachments ?

    Thanks again

    Rick

    Rick,

    Adding to Josh's reply... Not sure if you are using Incoming Documents or other Document Management app but if using DocXtender (SharePoint) the Invoice would be in a Fact Box on the Posted Purchase Invoice. If using Continia Document Capture, the same is true with the Posted Invoice except you are storing the Invoice in the Continia Cloud. In either case, the Auditor can select the Posted Sales Invoice and open the actual Invoice document.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Hi

    If you are looking for method that you click on transaction in GL then go to invoice I believe it is not possible in BC. The best method is what Josh mentioned. This way you can go to Invoice and if your team added the document to invoice then Auditor can see it.

    The other method is to use 3rd party app as Steve mentioned. We use SharePoint Connector. With minor customization or request to app developer you can add it to G/L page and then the link to document will be available in each line.
