Generate Internal Purchase Invoices (tfacp2295m000)

Use this session to generate invoices for the selected range of purchase invoices.

You can generate internal purchase invoices for a specific order type. In this way, you can separate the actual purchase invoices from the internal invoices.

You can compress internal purchase invoices by order number and by packing slip. In this way, you can generate internal purchase invoices per order and per packing slip.

In Procurement, you can specify the of payment terms and the late payment surcharge for every purchase order. If the payment and the late payment surcharge are the same on all the order lines for which an internal purchase invoice is created, the payment terms and the late payment surcharge are printed on the internal purchase invoice.

If the payment terms and the late payment surcharge are not the same for all orders, by default LN uses the payment terms and the late payment surcharge specified for the invoice-from business partner in the Invoice-from Business Partner (tccom4122s000) session.

If the order number and the packing slip are the same for all the order lines, the order number and the packing slip number are also printed on the invoice.

Payment agreements

If you use payment agreements, these rules apply:

  • If all the selected lines have the same payment agreement, LN uses the payment agreement for the invoice.
  • If the selected lines have various payment agreements, LN uses the payment agreement you defined for the business partner in the Invoice-from Business Partner (tccom4122s000) session.
Payment schedules

If a payment schedule is linked to the payment terms of the business partner, LN generates payment schedules for the recurring invoices. The due dates for the payment schedule lines are based on the new document date of the recurring invoice.

For more information, refer to Payment schedules – overview

Purchase invoice authorization

If payment approval is required for internal purchase invoices and if you defined default hold reasons and assigned approvers for purchase invoices, LN enters the default hold reason and an assigned approver in the Hold Reason and Assigned Approver fields. You can change the hold reason and the assigned approver.

To process the invoice, an assigned approver must remove the hold reason.

 

Selection Range
Packing Slip

The From and To fields define the range of packing slips that will be compressed on one invoice. To generate an invoice for one packing slip, enter the same packing slip code in both fields.

Order Type

The From and To fields define the range of order types for which invoices are generated.

The order type indicates the originating process for which the debit memo is generated. You can use this field to separate the external purchase orders from the internal transactions.

Order

The From and To fields define the range of orders for which invoices are generated.

Order Position

If you entered the same order number in the Order From and the Order To fields, the From and To fields define the range of order lines for which invoices are generated.

Order Sequence

If you entered the same order number in the Order Position From and the Order Position To fields, the From and To fields define the range of order line sequence numbers for which invoices are generated.

Logistic Company

The From and To fields define the range of originating logistic companies of the purchase orders for which invoices are generated.

Internal Business Partner

The From and To fields define the range of invoice-from business partners for which invoices are generated.

Receipt Cut-off Date

The cut-off date and time for the generation of internal purchase invoices.

Only receipts with a receipt date on or before the cut-off date are taken into account in the process. The cut-off date is important in connection with the compression criteria in combination with the invoice/document date.

Print Unselected Receipts

If this check box is selected, you can either choose a report sorted on internal sales invoices or a report sorted on receipts.

Note

A receipt might remain unselected for one of these reasons:

  • The internal sales invoice was not yet generated in Invoicing. Therefore, the invoice cannot be created in Accounts Payable.
  • For a purchase order line or sequence, not all receipts have occurred. In this case, the invoice cannot be created in Accounts Payable because it requires the same quantities as the Accounts Receivable invoice.
  • If a specific receipt can be processed, and another receipt that must be part of the same invoice falls outside the selection range specified on the first tab, the receipt within the selection range cannot be processed either. In this case, the Accounts Payable invoice would not fully match the Accounts Receivable invoice.
