Enter Supplier Invoice Lines
Explanation
This activity is used to enter one or more lines on a supplier invoice. This activity is also performed if you prefer to enter invoice lines with
detailed information on the goods or services purchased, such as part number, charge type,
description, quantity, or price units of measure. If you have a purchase order reference
on the invoice, this detailed information is retrieved from the lines on the reference
purchase order. It is also possible to create invoice lines automatically based on
unreceived or unmatched purchase order receipts.
For suppliers defined for income tax reporting and/or withholding, a supplier income
type can be entered per each registered invoice line.
Income types applicable to each supplier are specified in the
Tax
Withholding/Reporting window. In this window, you can also connect tax
withholding codes to the income type. Only the income types that are already
connected to the supplier can be entered in the invoice line. For some income
types, connecting tax withholding codes is mandatory. For such income types, it
is also required that tax withholding codes are connected to the invoice type in
the Tax Withholding/Reporting window before they can be registered
in an invoice line.
If the invoice includes only one tax code and not more than one delivery type and/or
supplier income type, and there are no requirements for invoice lines with detailed
information on what has been purchased, then the invoice net amount, gross amount, and tax
amount can be specified in the header portion of the window. In this case, one invoice
line will be created automatically for the invoice and tax code, delivery type or supplier
income type could be added or changed in this line if requested.
The delivery type for an invoice line can be changed after the invoice has been posted
under certain circumstances. If items belonging to the invoice have been sent to the tax
ledger or if a self invoice connected to this invoice has already been printed, you cannot
change the delivery types. In all other cases, the delivery type can be changed. This
capability supports self-billing or EDI invoices, as well as self invoices.
Prerequisites
This activity requires that an invoice be created and basic information such as
supplier and invoice number be entered for it. Also, tax codes and delivery types must be
defined. If the supplier is marked as an income tax reporting/withholding candidate, at
least one supplier income type must have been defined for the supplier in order enter an
income type for an invoice line. If the invoice has a purchase order reference and the
lines will include information about the goods or services purchased, then the part number
or charge type entered on the invoice line must be included in the purchase order.
If invoice lines need to be created based on
unmatched purchase order receipts, a reference to one or more purchase orders
should be entered in the invoice header and the invoice should not be saved.
System Effects
As a result of this activity,
- Invoice line totals will be updated.
- The reports connected to delivery types and taxes can be ordered. The
tax report is sorted by tax percentage and delivery type. The tax codes are
posted on different accounts. The reports can be used to distinguish trade
within the European Union. For US companies it is also possible to order
reports (1099 MISC reporting) concerning special income tax reporting,
provided that the supplier is set up as an income tax reporting and/or
withholding candidate.
- If an invoice with a purchase order reference has lines that contain part number or
charge type information, you can start a routine that automatically matches the invoice
lines with the purchase order lines. This matching is performed between the invoice line
and the order line if the purchase order number and part number/charge type correspond
accordingly.
- An invoice can be saved in Preliminary or Preliminary Posted
status. If invoice lines are entered without invoice header amounts, line
totals will be copied to invoice header when saving/posting the invoice.
If the header and line totals mismatch, a question will be raised when
saving/posting the invoice, giving an option to copy line totals to header.
