Transferring posted purchase invoices

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

Is there any way in NAV 2015 to transfer a posted purchase invoice from one vendor to another vendor. We have a few occasions where invoices have been processed onto the wrong vendor account and in our old system there was a transfer function (rather than having to credit and re-invoice). Just wondering if there is such a function in NAV 2015?

Thank you

    Best option is indeed to make a credit memo and then post a new invoice. It is wise because different vendors can have different payment terms and other details, and the posted invoice already contains the Due Date and many other elements, related to initial vendor. This would be quite challenging for the system to make modifications in all the subsequent places to modify them according to the new Vendor, and the business logic would suffer. Besides, invoices are a subject of approval, and making changes of the vendors are potential fraud option. Therefore, as other members suggested, please use credit-memo as there is no such other option.

    Hi Selina,

    Was your Older system in NAV? If there would be any function like this then that must be a level of customization done because in Standard NAV there's no such function available.
