Update accounting distribution on a PO

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Is it possible to update the GL account on the accounting distribution form for an invoice? We are currently seeing issues that invoices are being posted to the wrong GL based on the posting profile setup. There was a change a couple of weeks ago and the PO's that were created and confirmed before the change are posting based on the old profile. In the interim we'd like to update the accounting distribution to post to the correct GL account. Is this possible? has anyone else run into the same issue before?

    Hello HolliV,

    Yes, I open it through the pending vendor invoice menu.

    There you should be able to edit accounts and dimensions in the lines details section. If you open the distribution form from the pending vendor invoice header you can't do that.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    What role do you think allows it?  I'm logged in as System Admin and can't edit.  When you say it depends on the screen are you opening via the pending invoices menu choice?

    Hi HolliV,

    It depends on where you open the form.

    If you open it through the PO invoice form, things should be editable provided that you have the correct role assigned.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Did you ever get an answer about why the Split and Delete are grayed out?

    hello,

    I would like to to the same - change the GL-account-dimensions on the 'acounting distributions'-form.

    But every button (reset,split,....) is greyed out, so disabled.  Why is this not possible ?

    Thx

    Ludwig,

    That worked when creating new lines. Existing lines would still post to the old posting profile but at least we can identify those and work around it.

    Hi Carlos,

    If you modify and reconfirm those Purchase Orders is the new account used?

    Can you actually make a modification in the accounting distribution form that you attached. That is, can you for example select the reset or split button? (Please don't 'test' in your live system when trying out things here).

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
