Hello, I am unable to publish the expenditure related entry from the general journal, hence I am attempting to do so through the 'purchase invoices' section. I'm getting the following issue; could you kindly walk me through the steps so I can post this invoice?

Error:

    Best practice is to make sure you have a prod. posting group filled in on any G/L account that is used either on purchase orders or on sales orders.

    Hello Lucki

    Either you can put the Gen. Prod. Posting Group at Purchase invoice Line Level or you can give that value at relevant G/L Account card so when you will take that G/L account system will fetch the data from G/L Account card.

    And if you want to change the Gen. Product Posting Group at Line Level, you can.

    But At Line might be you will not get this field, for that you to Personalize the Page and drag the value at Line Level.

    Hello Lucki,

    I found the details of the issue you have faced. There are two ways to clear the issue.

    First way to solve the issue is find the field Gen. Prod. Posting group and fill the required field on the Lines tab and post your document. After that filling you may need to fill other fields which system asks as because system by sequence find the issue and gave the message about that.

    And the other way is open the GL Account card / COA account card and fill the fields Gen. Bus Posting Group and Gen. Prod. Posting Group values if they are going to be fixed / constant for all time. Then re select the GL Account again on the document which is going to be posted.

    For example: please find the below screenshot of GL Account Card:

    Thank you.
