Hello Experts,

I have used "Comments" option in Purchase Invoice as a Narration. I could to see this comment in Posted Purchase Invoice. But it is not flows into General Ledger Entries, the comment field is blank in the corresponding General Ledger Entry. See the attached screen shots. 

Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts...

Regards,

Ranjith

    Hi Ranjith,

    The comment field present in general ledger entries gets filled only when you add comments trough journal and post it and not by Purchase Invoice.

    Hi Ranjith,

    There is no standard process to copy comments from Purchase invoice to General ledger entries.

    You can go for customization.

    You can use event subscriber which hits trough Post action.

    If my answer was helpful to you, please verify it so that other users know it worked. Thank you very much.

    Hi

    As Vaishnavi mentioned no out of the box method and you need customization for that. We also use comments a lot. We trained our team to go to Entry -> Find related entries then open the posted invoice to see the comments. This is the only method without development.

    If there are any special instructions related to the purchase, such as delivery instructions or specific requirements, include them in the comments section. This helps in ensuring smooth processing of the transaction.
