Vendor Pending invoice The item's inventory model policy must be not stocked.

Posted on by 270

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 !

    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.

    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 ?

    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

    Thanks Ludwig.

    Below a screenshot with the problem highlighted. The blocking issue occurs at the time of filling the item number field.

    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
