Dear Guys,

This posting type:

Purchase expenditure for product

is always required for posting invoices under Purchase Orders.

from learn.microsoft.com:

Used when a purchase order invoice is posted. Two vouchers are created for the invoice to track purchase price variances when standard cost is used. The offset to this account is the Purchase expenditure, uninvoiced account which is used on the receipt posting and reversed during the invoice posting. Represents costs for the inventory purchased at invoicing that is not reflected in inventory account on the balance sheet. This is a profit and loss posting for purchase price variance most commonly seen in standard cost item purchases.

however, even if the transaction doesn't have discrepancies between invoice and receipt, it posts a line in the voucher with zero value.

Is this normal? How to avoid this?
