Offset Account Type "Project" in Vendor Payment Journal

Posted on by 6
Is it possible to use the Offset Account Type /Project/ in the Vendor Payment Journal module? 
 
Background:
We want to purchase items for inventory through the Purchase Requisition//Purchase Order module but need to pay for it with a credit card immediately because the vendor will not invoice the organization. 
 
We need to settle the Vendor Payable balance and cancel the expense generated under /Project/ when the credit card payment was liquidated in the system. 
 
We proposed using the vendor payment journal to Debit (Account Type) Vendor and Credit (Account Type) Project. This in theory would cancel the vendor payable due and offset the expense generated under /Project/ when the item was purchased outside the A/P process. 
 
Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated!

    Hi Jon,
    Using project type in vendor and customer payment journal is not valid in D365FO.
    I have already created an idea about using project in customer payment journal, I mean that the same can be applicable for vendor payment journal:

    Moved from D365 general forum to the Finance forum.

    Hi @Martin Drab - Thank you for the clarification on the definition of "applications" in this context. Yes, I am using Finance and Operations. Also, thank you for the assistance in getting this to the right section of the forum.

    D365 consists of many applications, such as Finance and Operations, Sales or Business Central.  You're asking in D365 general forum, therefore it's not clear which product you have in mind.
     
    I'm assuming it's Finance and Operations, but please confirm it, so people don't give you solutions not applicable to the product you're actually using. I'll move the thread when it's clear where it belongs.
