Project accounting - contractors and AP invoice

Posted on by 2,218

Hi,

I created a contractor (Contractor1) and assigned it to a project ID project1. Then I posted an hour journal and posted it. The cost price and sale price were setup accordingly.

When posting the hour journal I expect that the system will auto create the related AP Invoice or a Pending vendor invoice. Was there any missing step?

Thanks

Sam

    Good Morning Sam,

    Christoph is right, there is no such feature available that would auto-create a PO/PO invoice. If you are operating D365FO you could consider leveraging the PowerPlatform for this purpose. For an AX2012 application, a system modification or a manual creation seem to be the options to have a look at.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Sam,

    as far as I know there is no feature as expected. Whenever the contractor register some time against a project this time can be on the project invoice to the project customer but it’s not a basis for a vendor invoice. Usually you receive an invoice from your contractor. So you have to register a vendor invoice and like the invoice to the project.
