Hello community members,
Our users in one legal entity can't create Free Text Invoices due to this error message "Invalid request. SKU table and SKU field cannot be blank".
Has anyone encountered this before?
Thanks again.
Hi Jim,
The reason why these errors are being thrown is because specific product has invalid Product Variants associated to it due to their blank skus. Due to these invalid Product Variants with blank SKUs, you cannot make any updates tp this specific Product with PUT requests until these Variants and their issues are resolved. They just need to be updated so the SKU goes from "" (e.g. blank) to an actual string value.
And the official document describes in detail the steps to create a free text invoice, you can view it for reference.

Hello Hana,
Thank-you for your time and pointing out this important aspect of Product Variant setup with regard to SKU master data. I've bookmarked the page you linked above.
In our site, we have many parts with real part numbers set up properly, but many legacy items remain to be set up, they are currently ordered with dummy parts that represent a whole category of parts.
I think that is the reason that in our CCH SureTax Sales Set up is configured to show the ProjectCategoryId. I think this applies for Free text invoices that have lines without real part numbers being referenced.
