Dear Experts,
We are seeing an issue in UK legal entity ( we have created new).
The error is coming when we are posting Vendor Invoice Journal and keeping the description as blank.
LE language is En-GB.
We noticed this issue not there in other country.
What might be the issue?
Hi Ramit,
There is a check for creating vendor invoices in the following country regions - "GB", "RU", "SA" and "TH". While creating the vendor invoice lines, it checks if the journal line description is blank. This is a part of the standard code and hence I think you can't leave this field blank.
Super,
So, it doesn't stop us if that is left blank, is it the code?
It does stop you. It is throwing a warning when the Description is left blank. Right?
It doesn't stop me and allows me to post without filling up the description.
Interestingly, I just noticed, if I add some description, that auto join invoice number, vendor name and description.
Is it a code in UK?
Yes. This code is valid for UK, Russia, South Africa and Thailand.
Yes. It is not an error and is a warning only. So, it shouldn't stop you from posting the journal.
Thanks Gunjan.
is it possible for you to check how the description getting joined ?
Example
I put description as "Ramit Test"
When I save the entry, it comes as vendor name+Invoice number+Ramit Test
Can this be checked at all?
Is there any customization in place for this? I don't think you can setup journal descriptions in that way. You can probably check with your developer once to confirm the same.
Sorry, I was not clear I think,
What I am saying, it is coming like that, and this is a brand new legal entity I created today.
I think this is part of localization and description is filled up by that way only.
Hi Ramit, If it is a brand new legal entity, I am almost sure it is not a setup. Is the environment being used without any customizations? In that case, we can check if this is a feature.
Hi Gunjan,
No customizations.
And we can check fir feature
