Hi,

2 questions on pending vendor invoices :

1 / I have some vendor invoices coming before related PO receipt are done (company rule = 3 way matching for all purchases).

Is it possible to create a vendor pending invoice and associate later on this pending invoice to PO receipts ?

2/ I tried to do it with creating a pending vendor invoice without PO associated but impossible to create invoice line on stored product

Message = "Vendor Pending invoice The item's inventory model policy must be not stocked." so I can't go forward.. 2nd question, is there a setup to authorize stored item on Pending vendor invoices ?

Thanks for your help !

Hello Lionel,

For No 1:

Yes you can. Simply create a pending vendor invoice header and save it. Later on when the items arrive you can continue working on it and then start the matching and validation. I am not sure whether this makes really sense because entering just the invoice header is a matter of seconds.

For No 2:

Can you share a screenprint and provide some additional information? I don't understand the underlying issue.

Many thanks,

Ludwig

Good Morning Lionel,

Honestly, I have not seen a similar warning.

If you enter a different item, do you get the same message or does it show up for this specific item only?

Is it possible that this is the result of a purchasing policy or a system modification that has been implemented?

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hi,

I just made some tests this morning and results are the following :

1/ I can create a pending vendor invoice based on purchase orders (working for all cases = stored or non stored)

2/ I can create a pending vendor invoice not based on PO but it's only working for non stored products.

3/ Seems to be a limit : it's not possible to create a pending vendor invoice, not related to POs on stored items... Is it something working on your side ?

Hi Lionel,

What you describe under 1, 2 and 3 is right.

You cannot create a pending vendor invoice for stocked products if there is no PO.

Best regards,

Ludwig
