Apply vendor entries

Dynamics 365 Business Central/NAV User Forum

Hello experts,

recently I have run into a problem. I try to pay vendor payables from the vendor master data / balance where I can see all the open entries.

I followed the training material but when I want to post in the apply vendor entries window i get the following erorr:

The application was successfully posted though no entries have been applied. What can be the problem?

I noticed that the amount to apply field is not filled automatically, but why? Is it a feature?

Seemingly you have selected only one “half” - when you try to Post, Navision doesn’t warn you that other “half” must be selected, too. Instead, looks like posting is in progress, but it ends up with message you quoted.

Sorry what do you mean by the halfs?

I set in the Applie to ID, the Applying Entry and i also filled the information regarding the Balance accounts. Still not enough? In the NAV 838X_NA40_ENUS_FSI_FI training material there is nothing mentioned about this problem.

You can apply, for example, Invoice to Payment (or CreditMemo, in short Db to Cr or vice versa) - these are 2 “halves”

Another possibility - if an Invoice is selected as Applying entry, and you set F9-Applies to ID to another Invoice, not Payment (or CreditMemo), the same happens.

Hi Otto,

How are you assigning the “Applie- to ID” - by manually entering (using F2) it does not update all the requied fields. You you using Application → Set Applies-to ID (F9)?

Application-to ID (F9)

Just One more question about this.

Can you please write me down which fields I need to fill in the Apply vendor entries window?

8

First, select one of Lines as Applying Entry (shortcut = Shift-F9) - it’s data then appear in “header” part of Form, and is removed from “list” part.

Then, for one or more lines the only field to fill is Applies-to ID (shortcut = F9, toggles the mark) - so you mark which line(s) will be applied against the one selected in first step.

Ok, but in the list part I only see unpaid invoices. There is no payment in the list. So with this window I can reconcile the partner balance? From this window I cannot make payments for a certain invoice?

Thanks in advance

No. This form lists all posted transactions with Vendor - Invoices, Payments, CNs - and is used for apllication ONLY - it is even named Apply Entries… You can not add new transactions here - be it Invoice or Payment.

That makes things easier, thanks.
