The following are various type of invoices used to record transactions Standard. A trade invoice you receive from a supplier. PO Default. A trade invoice you want to automatically match to a specified purchase order and then manually match to the individual shipments on the purchase order. Credit Memo. A negative amount invoice you receive from a supplier representing a credit for goods or services purchased. Debit Memo. A negative amount invoice you send to notify a supplier of a credit you recorded for goods or services purchased. Prepayment. An advance payment you make to a supplier or employee Expense Report.

Once the invoices are generated, this will be updated to the next period for which the invoice should be created. The remaining periods for which the invoices remain to be created will default. Enter any identifiable number; this with a suffix of the period name will be assigned to the invoice created as the invoice number. Enter any logical description for this invoice The functional currency defaults, unless the supplier site invoice currency is different. Accept the default. This defaults from the supplier site setup. Accept default. GL Date for the liability will be assigned in any of these ways: 1) If you enter a GL Date, it will default to every invoice you create from this template and will be the date the liability will take effect in GL. 2) If you leave it blank, and create the invoice in period where system period and special calendar period are the same, the beginning date of the recurring invoice's period defaults. 3) If you leave it blank, and create the invoice in period where system period and special calendar period are not the same (in sense of the period in which the system date falls), the system date on which you create the invoice defaults. Generally you will follow the second case. 15 16 Payment Method Payment Terms Required, Defaults Required, Defaults This defaults from the supplier site Setup. Accept default.

The hold can not be applied if the invoices are already selected for payment .These holds can be released manually. The following are the type of the manual holds Invoice Hold. You can manually apply one or more Invoice Hold Names ("holds") to an invoice using the Invoice Holds window of the Invoice Workbench. Scheduled Payment Hold. You can hold payment on part of an invoice by placing one or more of the scheduled payments on hold in the Scheduled Payments window of the Invoice Workbench. Supplier Hold. In the Supplier Sites window, you can enable the Hold All Payments, Hold Unvalidated Invoices, or Hold Unmatched Invoices options. You also have the option of specifying an Invoice Amount Limit for a supplier site. B) Manual Holds. These holds are created by system during invoice validation when ever an exception is encountered by the system. These can be released only when the exception is corrected.You must fix the problem that caused Invoice Validation to place the hold on the invoice then resubmit Invoice Validation to release the holds. You cannot release the following holds: The examples of some of the holds are as below.
28/31

Dist Variance. Invoice amount does not equal the sum of the invoice distribution amounts. No Rate. Foreign currency invoice does not have an exchange rate assigned to it. Can't Funds Check. Budget does not exist for the invoice accounting period, or the invoice distribution account does not equal the purchase order distribution account. This hold is used by Payables only if you use encumbrance accounting and the absolute or advisory method of budgetary control. Final Matching. Invoice has one or more distributions final matched to a purchase order. Can't Try PO Close. Invoice is final matched to purchase order, but Invoice Validation placed one or more holds on invoice during validation. Dist Acct Invalid. Invoice distribution has an invalid account. An invalid account prevents you from creating accounting entries for an invoice or payment. ERV Acct Invalid. Invoice Validation created an invalid Exchange Rate Variance account for an invoice distribution. Payables only apply this hold if you enable Automatic Offsets. No AWT Period.
