Is there a standard function to create an invoice from a purchase order (maybe in higher versions like BC 19)?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hey guys,

do you know if there is a standard function that allows me to generate a purchase invoice from an order?

I would like to do the following:

I would like to insert purchase orders (XML files) via my XMLPort into my Navision 2016.

The information should then first be stored in a buffer table.

Then I want to create an action that will generate invoices for me from the purchase orders.

Is there already a possibility?


Thank you very much ;)

    Malue,

    Adding to YUN's reply... Copy Document is super easy and fast. Not sure where these XML PO's come from but are you trying to create the Invoice for the Purchase Order from the actual Invoice received? Matching the Invoice to the PO and the PO Receipt? If yes, then consider scanning or OCR processing. This eliminates the XML all together and might be more efficient and you can add workflows for approvals. Here is a link to one that I have used for my customers for many years...

    Hi, there is no action to create invoice from an order, but I think you can refer the “Copy Document” function in this case.
