Inter Company Posting Purchase Invoices

Toddy_Boy

Hi Guys

I've hit a bit of a snag. I can send Sales Invoices through the inter company posting but the thing doesn't like sending Purchase Invoices, they just don't hit the outbox, however Purchase Orders goto the outbox perfectly fine.

Any ideas?

Hey,

Usually it is not needed to send purchase invoices to your IC partner because you should receive purchase invoices from your partner. You dont initiate them, you just post them.

Our client has two companies in Navision, first company makes the goods the second distributes them. At the time of despatch of a sales order from the second company, inventory in the first company is checked, the Qty To Ship is updated in the second company sales order accordingly, a Purchase Invoice is raised in the second company (to purchase items from the first company) and posted which will place the inventory into stock at the second company allowing the sales order to be despatched.

The idea is for the Purchase Invoice from the second company to find its way to the first company via the IC workings and create a matching Sales Invoice which can be posted thus removing the quantity from stock. If the IC postings doesn't handle this then we'll have to have a rethink on how it's done. Can anyone confirm this is the case or has anyone managed to get the IC to transfer a Purchase Invoice into another company (two of us here have tried this to no avail)?
