Questions regarding A/P

Hello,

I am using AX 2012. I entered an invoice at the wrong amount and it was posted. Is there a way to delete the invoice? The problem is that it was for raw material used in production.

Second question in regards to credit or debit memos. Example an invoice is entered and a credit memo comes in for the exact same amount do to wrong pricing. So is there a way to enter the credit and apply it to that invoice so it offsets against each other?

My 2 co-workers and I are new to AX and did not get a lot of training on it. There is a lot that we do not know how to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Bob,

Once invoice is posted it can’t be deleted . You need to do a credit note for the invoice wrongly posted

Correction functionality in AX 2012 is only provided in Free text invoices .

Please let me know for further details

First advice is to get training - this will save you a lot of headaches and pain correcting things.

An invoice can only be corrected by a credit note, it is a legal thing in most countries. [:)] So you need to raise a credit memo, as it was consumed I guess this is a purchase invoice for correction. You could enter a positive and negative line on the same order which has a net quantity impact of zero but will price correct when invoiced. You could also raise a credit note or a financial credit note (Free text invoices are sales based)

However I have to question your AP invoice controls - the point is that it is supposed to balance and be checked, so you might want to review this procedure.

Look at the open transaction editing against the vendor for matching credits to invoices.
