    Hello Vanessa,

    In standard Business Central, posting a Purchase Invoice should create a Vendor Ledger Entry in addition to the relevant G/L, VAT, Item/Value Entries; Microsoft explicitly documents that the vendor account is updated when a purchase document is posted, so a Posted Purchase Invoice with no VLE is not expected standard behavior. First, search Vendor Ledger Entries directly using the posted invoice Document No. / Vendor No. / Posting Date, then compare the Transaction No. of the related G/L entries because Find Entries alone should not be the only verification; also note that your screenshots appear to show different document numbers/dates, so confirm they refer to the same transaction. If no VLE exists, check whether you have any customization/event subscriber around purchase posting (Purch.-Post, vendor posting, IsHandled, etc.) and review telemetry/event logs from the posting time; if there is no customization involved, I would treat this as an abnormal/incomplete posting and raise it with Microsoft rather than manually inserting a Vendor Ledger Entry, as manually creating ledger entries would break the accounting/audit relationships.

    Regards,
    Oussama Sabbouh

    Hi All,

    Im closing this discussion already. After reading some posts in the forum and related articles. This is mostlikely caused by our customization and possibly during the run, the posting got interrupted. the only solution we got is to create reversal entries for the created GL entry and create the correct entries.

    thanks everyone!

    @OussamaSabbouh yup thanks for the advice. I already checked with the dev, and we're probably have to review the posting logs since before we optimized the customization for this it has been recurring but minimally to 1-2 transactions per month. The volume of posting usually goes up to thousands and we would like to avoid this incident for the next months.

    @Vanessa Mascardo Could you please share code snippet that created this issue so we remain aware about the bad code?

    Hi Vanessa, good to hear that it may just be the customization. They can cause issues on the posting routine. Not sure the customization you've built for but invoice type creation you could also try the Purchase Journal instead. 

     

    In the meantime I can mark this question as resolved but please let me know if it needs to be re-opened later.

     

    Thank you,
