Incoming documents create purchase invoices excl. VAT

Hi community

I have recently set up the readsoft OCR service in dynamics 365 business central but once the data has been extracted correctly and i "Create Document", I get a message saying that the Purchase Invoice was created with warnings.

The warning is this that the total created amount does not correspond to the total of the incoming document:

When opening the Purchase Invoice, I see that the VAT has not been transferred:

when I "Preview Posting" (with the VAT amount missing), an error occurs, "Gen. Prod. Posting Group must have a value in Purchase Line: Document Type=Invoice, Document No.=107018, Line No.=10000. It cannot be zero or empty.":

However, I do not see a field for that.

If I click "Post" anyway, this occurs:

I have tried to extract data with and without line items (I don't use line items in general)

I have run out of ideas on how to solve the issue.

Can anyone help?

Kind regards,

Henrik.

    Hello,

    You can personalize the line items, add the Gen. Prod. Posting Group field to it and see what value it has. It probably is empty while on the General Ledger you are booking the line item it has a value specifying what needs to be done with the VAT amount.

    Hope it helps.
