AR Number Sequence : Payment voucher

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2,459

I'm struggling to understand why D365 processes a second payment voucher, using the number sequence "Payment voucher". Currently setup using number sequence ARPV#####

I process a payment using the general journal, settlement, functionality. The journal name (number sequence I'm using) is e.g. PMT######. When it posts, it seems like it uses PMT####### and also posts an entry to ARPV#####. (a double entry..?)

The posting type is "Customer Settlement".

Can you confirm why D365 does this?

    Hi,

    The journal number is controlled by the number sequence in General ledger > Ledger setup > General ledger parameters > number sequences > General journal transfer.

    The voucher is controlled by the number sequence of the journal name.

    They are the different financial process, please refer to these linkages:

    hi MATTGUO

    I'm still not understanding. This is how i understand it:

    I create a GL Journal, with a JournalName setup with a unique Voucher number Sequence (in the above it is SAPInJnl-#######). If i were to process a DR and CR, and check my postings in Voucher Transactions Inquiry, i would see 2 lines, with the Voucher number SAPInJnl-#######. Agree?

    In the above, i am creating a Journal with the above JournalName, and within that journal, I'm also settling a customer invoice against account 1186..... So it is a "Customer-to-Ledger" transaction. The DR and CR i expect to see a CR to the customer settlement/control account, and a DR to the 1186.. account. Agreed?

    All of the above occurs, and is 100%.

    However, there is an additional DR and CR that is created by the system, using voucher ARPMTV-#######. This for some reason is a DR & CR against the customer settlement/control account.

    I'm confused as to why the system is generating this ARPMTV transaction.

    Hi James,

    So the problem is the additional voucher that you share in your last screenprint and that debits and credits the same account.

    Is that right?

    Did you make a selection in the settlement form because in your last screenprint it says settlement?

    And is that an invoice that you post in a GL journal or something else?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Ludwig

    The answer is YES to all your questions. I am settling a customer invoice, using the general journal. (i click on Functions-Settlement, and select an invoice)

    Hi James,

    This might be a standard behavior if you make use of fixed financial dimensions.

    Is the KC22 somewhere fixed?

    Please see: fix.lcs.dynamics.com/.../Details

    This explains it. I do use Fixed Dimensions.
