Why is "Prepayment" grayed out on my Purchase Orders?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 20

I have defined the prepayment account in Inventory Management:

and also defined the offset in AP parameters:

However, when I go to create a prepayment on a PO, the prepayment functionality is grayed out. Is there something I'm missing here?

    Hi Brian,

    Please navigate to General ledger > Ledger Setup > General ledger parameters and check if the highlighted field is unchecked.

    Hi Gunjan,

    No, that box is checked. Should it be unchecked?

    Yes. It should be unchecked. Hope you got it working now.

    Thank you so much! That got the link to appear. I did receive this message when unchecking.. "If you clear this check box, posting profiles are used instead of posting definitions, and this affects ledger postings if a user tries to post. Are you sure you want to continue?"

    What are the difference between posting definitions and posting profiles? Just want to make sure I know what I am making inactive.

    Hi Brian,

    I am not sure about the difference between these. Let me try to find out more on this.
