Hi,

when i am creating a purchase invoice i create a purchase line item, in there i put gl account, costcenter, company code

however when i try to post it says that i also have to fill in the cost center and company code in the invoice details.

that seems not logical, any ideas how that could be removed? as i saw others on youtube posting without filling the invoice details3542.Capture.JPG

    Hello,

    Are you working in a specific country release or better do you have a repro in an unmodified CRONUS Company / standard database?

    Thank you.

    hi zhu,

    thanks. but my question is related to the cost center and company code. why do i have to fill thin in the invoice details, if i already filled it in in the line details.

    Hi, This looks like the Purchase Header Dimensions, so I think you have to add it to the Vendor.

    For example,

    Department Code and Project Code

    Adding to vendor master:

    Recreate the purchase invoice

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    thanks

    when i go to the g/l account card and click on dimensions, i have now included for this AP account no code. however i still get the same error

    nav obliges me to fill in a cost center and company code in the invoice details, however i already filled in the in line details

    It will be down to default dimension setup. I expect it is for the g/l account you have assigned to the vendor posting group for the payables account. That only contains the total of the invoice so it uses the “header” of the invoice aka the invoice details. You can check if I’m right by finding out what that g/l account is and then accessing the dimensions assigned to it by choosing the “Dimensions” button on the g/l account card
