Posting definitions on purchase invoice

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by annade

Hi,

I would like to know if this is a possibility in D365FO. I have the following scenario.

  1. A purchase order is created for vendor ABC
  2. A purchase invoice is booked directly from the PO. 
  3. A cost of 1000 is debited GL account 4031 (oost)

Can I use posting definitions to also add the following transactions?

  1. Credit 1000 of GL account 3311 (revenue)
  2. Debit 1000 of GL account 1680 (balance)

The trigger should be the vendor account.

I have tried to setup posting definitions for purchase order and vendor invoice. But it's not a matter of purchase encumbrance, nor any vendor invoice register. 

Before I asked my question here, I have tried to setup posting definitions and transactions posting definitions. My only result was that no PO can be invoice updated at all.

Aprreciate all your help

    Hi annade,

    The project module can do that the posting that you are asking for out of the box.

    With posting definitions, I am not sure because they are used hardly in my home country.

    Have you already checked out the available documentation on MS docs?

    There are a number of examples available here:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../example-posting-definitions

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Thanks for your reply. How do you mean the project module can achieve that? I have no problem to get my ordinary posting, ie the cost to be booked on the project through the PO. However on the same time I need to create an internal revenue for the internal vendor.

    The actual revenue to my customer works fine through the project invoicing. However, this is a type of intracompany functionality that I need , preferably without having to create internal sales orders.
