Hello,

Would like to seek community advise whether the following is possible.

Upon posting of Sales Invoice to an intercompany partner, a Purchase Invoice is automatically created at the Recipient Intercompany.

User requested to have the printed Sales Invoice from the Issuer Intercompany to be automatically attach to the Purchase Invoice in the Recipient Intercompany.

The Purchase Invoice in the Recipient intercompany to be automatically posted.

Are the above automation possible? If yes, kindly advise what is the best method.

thank you.

Transferring the printed invoice and automatically posting is not part of the standard intercompany functionality in Business Central. So that will require some customization.

The best approach for this I think will depend on the intercompany partners being part of the same BC database or not.

Hi Inge, thanks for your feedback. Yes, they are within the same BC production environment. How simple would the customization be to have that automated?

1. Auto attach printed sales invoice from issuer company to the receiver company

2. Auto post the Purchase Invoice upon creation of it (can job queue handle this)?

thanks

Neither of those are very large customizations as long as the scenario is companies within the same environment.

And you are totally correct - the job queues are an excellent approach for automatic posting.

Development and testing of a solution like that should not take more than around 2 - 3 days max. I think.

Hi, just add to Inge's reply.

For question 1, you can refer to the following part of the code to automatically generate an invoice and then add it to the receiver company.
