On the Vendor Ledger Entry report, there is no reference to the vendor invoice number, only Navision numbers. We have instances where our vendor accounts departments ring us chasing money and they only have their invoice number, is there an easy way we can search by vendor invoice number.

    use Navigate --> External --> Document No.
    or got to the Entries and User Ctrl+F7 on Field "External Document no."
    Do you make it right, it works too!

    The vendor ledger entry screen should also list the extrnal document number for you, so you can type and find in the column. If you want it on the report this would just need adding.

    Our vendor ledger entry screen has automatically generated numbers int he external document number column, not the invoice number from the vendor.

    and why you not store the vendor invoice no in the external document no. :?:

    Hi Alan

    Which field do you store the supplier invoice in? What is the purpose of the auto-generated number in the external document number field?

    I thought you were a Navision user I knew in Warwick, but not sure they had this modification :D

    I think the external document number if allocated by navision because we use the "get receipt line" option when entering invoices. We use this method because we have vendors who supply one invoice with more than one purchase order number on it, some vendors also do multiple deliveries for the same purchase order number.
    does this explain anything?

    Yep no issue, but the invoice number will be internally generated, then you will record the actual vendor invoice number on the invoice - which field do you use to record the actual vendors invoice?
