Posted on by Foluso 160

Hello all,

I have this issue while trying to invoice a PO. I have confirmed the ledger account from the item posting (Inventory management > Setup > Posting >  Purchase order tab > Purchase expenditure for expense) which is accurate. Not sure what else to do at this point. Kindly help

    Dear Ronald,

    First goto purchase order and in purchase tab, take account distribution.

    You can see some items showing error.

    Try to reset in financial area.

    If still error, goto that item and check what is the itemgroup (in manage inventory section).

    Goto inventory /  setup /  posting and make sure you have defined main account for this itemgroup.

    If available,

    Then goto inventory /  setup /  itemgroup

    Search for this itemgroup and make sure account is defined here as well for purchase expenditure.

    You are good to go..!!

    Hello Ronald,

    Please double check your account setup and ensure that an account for the procurement category is setup.

    If the error persists check LCS for available hotfixes especially if you operate an older AX version.

    Best regards

    Ludwig
