A/P-A/R accounting > Invoicing > Customer BP invoices 

Use this function to manage customer invoicing outside the typical sales cycle.
In this context, you do not manage the order or the receipt note for the stock issue (etc.). When issuing the invoice, the data required for accounting is recorded.

As for customer tracking (open item statements, reminders, payment management, etc.), the process is the same for invoices that come from the complete cycle or that come from entering a BP invoice.

  • In this document, the term 'invoice' has a generic meaning: It can be an invoice, a credit note, a debit note, or a credit memo.
  • Invoices generated from recurring invoices cannot be deleted if they are used as a reference template (first recurring invoice/original recurring invoice).
    In addition, the invoice must not be changed if it is also used as reference invoice.
  • For the Fixed Assets module:
    When the SALINV - Sale invoice to generate parameter (AAS chapter, FAS group) is set to Yes, a BP customer invoice is generated automatically after validating the Asset disposal with a Sales reason. When the issue applies to a main asset and its components, only one customer invoice is generated with as many lines as there are sold assets.
    Each asset concerned can be identified using its reference displayed at the level of the Comment field in the invoice line.
    The values of some fields taken from the information entered during the asset disposal cannot be modified: The accounting date, the currency and customer of the Header section and the amount, as well as all tax elements of the Lines section.

French electronic signatures for sales invoices and journal entries

In compliance with French and Portuguese antifraud legal requirements and to ensure data security, electronic signatures are automatically generated when a customer invoice or journal entry is posted or set to Final, respectively. After the electronic signature is generated, further modifications to any of the fields identified below can be easily detected.

You can use the Electronic signature control function (FRADSICTL) to review the current electronic signature and highlight any inconsistencies.

See the “French electronic signature how to guide” or the "SVAT certification for Portuguese legislation guide" on the How to tab for details on implementing this feature. This document is intended for administrators and consultants who maintain and update Sage X3.

Exceptions

Data from invoices or journal entries posted before activating the electronic signature feature is not added to the DKSDATAFRA table and therefore no electronic signature is created.

Legislations other than French or Portuguese do not need to generate electronic signatures.

The electronic signature is a record in the Electronic signatures table (DKSDATAFRA) that includes data from the following fields in the Sales invoice (SINVOICE) and Account entries (GACCENTRY) tables:

Limitations

When the invoice is entered in tax-inc. mode and an additional or special tax code is present (entered or automatically loaded from the account), the amounts of the three tax levels must be entered manually.

Screen management

Posting customer BP invoices involves three tabs containing the characteristics of each part of the invoice body.

Header

Presentation

First, the key accounting information of the invoice must be entered:

  • the site,
  • The invoice type which determines the document category (invoice/credit memo/debit note/credit note), the automatic journal, the journal and journal type that will be used during document posting
    SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on the customer invoice type.
  • The document number (where a manual numbering range is authorized)
  • the document posting date, by default that of its receipt in the folder,
  • The customer identification code and the control account on saving the document

You can define:

  • the invoice header,
  • the invoice lines.

After this information is entered, you can Post the invoice to accounting.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Block number 1

Enter the site code.

The site must be a financial site. This determines the site and the company for the entry posting.

 

  • Name (field CPYNAM)

 

Enter the invoice type code to reference the invoice category and the entry structure used when validating the invoice.

Only an invoice type with a legislation and company group consistent with those of the company linked to the given site can be entered.
SEEREFERTTOLearn more about working with legislations.

  • Document no. (field NUM)

If the number is left blank, it will be automatically assigned upon validation.

Block number 2

  • Accounting date (field ACCDAT)

Enter a date to define the accounting date for the generated journal. This field defaults to today's date.

This date is not necessarily the same date entered for the Source document. For example, for a supplier invoice, the Source document date reflects when the invoice was created by the supplier. In that case, the Accounting date would be different.

No help linked to this field.

  • Address code (field BPAINV)

 

  • Name (field BPRNAM)

 

  • Control (field BPRSAC)

Enter the code for the BP (customer or supplier) control account initialized by default with the accounting code for the BP invoice.

The initialization of the code for the Control field depends on whether or not the BP/Company tab is present in the BP record (GESBPR).

  • Account (field SACACC)

 

Close

 

Tab Header

Presentation

Invoice characteristics

Some fields in the header are used to complete the invoice:

  • Amount -tax and Amount +tax fields
    By default, entering an amount in either field is optional. This is controlled by the HEAAMTBPC – Cust. inv. header amt. ctrl parameter (TRS chapter, INV group).
    When you enter amounts on the invoice lines, these amounts automatically display in the corresponding fields on the Header. If the amounts are different, a warning message displays by default: Totals different from header. Use the WRNMSGBPC – Customer inv. warning msg. parameter (TRS chapter , INV group) to disable the display of this message.
  • The link between a credit memo and the original invoice using this invoice number, or the link between the credit memo and the credit memo request number from the customer, etc.
  • The default analysis for this invoice is then applied to the payments for the BP accounts:
    You can define the default dimensions in the invoice header.

See the documentation on Default dimensions.

Open item characteristics

Use the remaining fields to define the open items in the invoice with respect to payment management (pay-by BP identification, payment conditions), to the open item statement management, and to the reminder process.

Once the invoice has been saved, you can click Open items action to view the open items and the status of the related payment.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Detail

  • Source document date (field BPRDAT)

Enter the invoice date. This field defaults to today's date.

  • Source document (field BPRVCR)

This field is used to record the number or the reference of the source invoice.

  • Spanish invoice type (field INVTYPSPA)

This field is only available when the sales site is linked to a Spanish company. Use this field to select the type of issued invoice. This information will be sent to the online portal of the Spanish fiscal authorities when transmitting fiscal data from the SII monitoring function.

When creating a credit memo, the default credit memo type is determined by the SIIABTYP - SII credit memo type parameter (LOC chapter, SPA group).

This field indicates the invoicing currency. All amounts are entered in this currency.

  • Rate (field RAT1)
  • field LABEL

 

  • field RAT2

 

  • Amount - tax (field AMTNOT)

This field displays a control amount that is compared to the line total during the recording.

This amount is mandatory when the HEAAMTBPC – Cust. inv. header amt. ctrl parameter (TRS chapter, INV group) is set to Ex-tax and Tax -incl. amounts to be entered.

  • Amount + tax (field AMTATI)

 

  • Invoice number (field INVNUM)

This invoice is the one to which the credit memo is allocated.
Upon accounting validation and according to the value of the LETAUTCNO - Auto match inv ->credit note parameter (CPT chapter, MTC group), the credit memo and invoice can or cannot be matched together.

SEEINFODepending on the value of theINVCAN - Cancellation invoice parameter (TC chapter, INV group), thedocument in progress can be of the 'Cancellation invoice' type. In this case, the credit memo and invoice are matched, regardless of the value of the LETAUTCNO parameter.

  • DER code (field SPADERNUM)

 

After invoice validation, the project reference the invoice is allocated to can no longer be modified.

  • VCS number (field BELVCS)

Field linked to the Belgian legislation. 
It is used to specify on an invoice the VCS number (VCS refers to transfers with structured format communication) and to ease bank reconciliation via the use of the VCS number.

Reminder:Structured communication consists in specifying a single identifier on the invoices that will be used in all the banking exchanges.

The encoding number is made up of 12 numeric characters:

  • 10 digits (two characters defining the year + eight characters defining a sequence number),
  • 2 control digits calculated according to the check digit modulo 97 rule.

In the case of sales invoices and customer BP invoices, this number is automatically generated and cannot be modified.

The generation of the encoding number is performed:

  • if the company manages VCS encoding numbers,
  • if activity code KBE - Belgian localization is abled,
  • if parameter BELVCS - VCS management is set to 'Yes',
  • whatever the country of the bill-to customer.

SEEINFO The field is not loaded if the invoice is of pro forma type.

If the invoice type is a direct credit memo, the encoding number remains empty.

If the invoice type is a credit memo linked to an invoice, the VCS number of the invoice is attached to it.

SEEWARNING In case of a site modification, the display of field "VCS number" is reinitialized.

In the case of a credit memo linked to several invoices, a control prevents the credit memo from being attached to the various invoices. The user must create as many credit memos as there are invoices.

Field subject to activity code: KPO - Portuguese localization
It is used to specify the VAT adjustment reason for the field 40, upon generation of the VAT declaration.
When choosing the reason, the possible values are the values contained in the miscellaneous table 8300.

Field subject to activity code: KPO - Portuguese localization
It is used to specify the VAT adjustment reason for the field 41, upon generation of the VAT declaration.
When choosing the reason, the possible values are the values contained in the miscellaneous table 8301.

  • Original document no. (field ORIDOCNUM)

 

  • Period start date (field PERDEB)

 

  • To (field PERFIN)

 

Block number 3

  • Status (field STA)

 

  • Printed (field STARPT)

 

Enter the VAT management type associated with the customer invoice.
Only a tax rule with a legislation and group that are consistent with those of the document can be entered.
SEEREFERTTOThe general principles linked to the multi-legislation setup are detailed here.

This field is automatically entered if a tax rule is specified in the record of the supplier of the current invoice. This is used, among other things, to obtain a print conditioned by the type of legislation.

  • Amount type (field SALPRITYP)

These two radio buttons, initialized from the BP, are used to define whether the amounts on the invoice lines are entered as Tax excl. or Tax inc.

The choice between Ex-tax or Tax-incl. is only possible upon invoice creation.

  • If the type is Ex-tax, the excluding-tax amount is entered in the invoice line. The Tax-incl. amount is calculated.
  • If the type is Tax-incl., the amount including taxes is entered in the invoice line. The Ex-tax amount is calculated.

If the DEPMGTMOD - Discount management mode parameter (TC chapter, INV group) has the value Rebate on VAT, the type of amount is Ex-tax by default, regardless of the value of parameter SALPRITYP - Amount/Price type (TC chapter, INV group). You cannot select Tax-incl..

Enter the Entity/use code to calculate the precise tax amount for the customer. This tax code is compatible with the Avalara system and makes it possible to determine the customer type for fiscal purposes.

This field is available for all countries. The Entity/Use code can be entered for any delivery address when a document is being processed for a country that is tax-exempt. When the Calculate alldocuments connection with SST is set to No andan Entity/use code is entered, the document is exempt from tax and not subject to processing costs.

Open items

If the invoice is to be factored, enter the code for the factor that will collect for this invoice. You need to enter a factor with a Company and/or Site that is compatible with the Company and/or Site of the open item. By default, the factor code is defined in the customer record.

For example:

  • If the factor is not associated with a bank, there is no compatibility issue.
  • If the factor is associated with a bank and the bank belongs to company 'A', the invoice must also be associated with company 'A'. The site of the invoice does not matter.
  • If the factor is associated with a bank and the bank belongs to the company 'A' and site 'B', the invoice must also be associated with company 'A' and site 'B'.
  • Factor name (field BPRFCTNAM)

 

  • Statement (field XSOI)

Indicates if the generated open items will have 'to be put on the statement' or not.

  • Reminder (field XFLGFUP)

Indicates if the generated open items will have 'to be relaunched' or not.

Payment

This BP indicates the pay-by or paid BP

  • Address code (field BPAPAY)

 

  • Due date basis (field STRDUDDAT)

This is the date from which the payment schedule is calculated.

This field indicates the payment conditions that will be applied in order to determine the invoice schedule. The latter can be manually modified later on.
It is only possible to enter a payment term that is consistent with the legislation and the group of the company. SEEREFERTTOThe general principles linked to the multi-legislation setup are detailed here.

  • Due date (field DUDDAT)

 

Code used by default for the current BP to identify a series of early discount and late charge rates (up to 12) to be applied to a payment according to a number of days early or days late with respect to the open item date.
Only a discount code consistent with the legislation and company group of the document site can be entered.
SEEREFERTTOThe general principles linked to the multi-legislation setup are detailed in the GRPLEG field help.

  • Comments (field DES)

You can manually enter up to three comments.

Note: You can add content from the first comment to the Comment field on the Lines tab by entering // in that field on the Lines tab.

  • VAT declaration no. (field DCLEECNUM)

This field is displayed only if the following conditions are met:

  • The KPO - Portuguese localization activity code is active.
  • The company to which the invoicing site is linked manages the Portuguese VAT (the value of the company parameter PORVAT - Portuguese VAT (LOC chapter, POR group) is "yes").
  • This field is not set up as hidden at entry transaction level.

 This field is initialized:

  • on the first line: with the supplier EU VAT number indicated in the invoice header,
  • on each of the next lines: with the EU VAT number indicated on the line preceding the current line or, if not, with that of the supplier indicated in the invoice header.

It can still be modified if it is set up to accept entries at entry transaction level and if the invoice is not validated.

  • You can complete the Mandate reference field in direct invoice creation mode. This field is only mandatory if the payment terms are of the SDD-type. This field is initialized by the validated main mandate of the company/pay-by BP combination, but it can be modified. Only a mandate reference whose status is 'Validated' can be entered.
  • When the invoice is created through an automatic creation process, this field is not initialized if no 'Validated' main mandate has been defined for the company/pay-by BP combination. In this case, the invoice is created, but it can not be validated until a mandate reference is entered.
  • During a credit memo entry by invoice picking, the mandate reference is populated by the reference of the mandate on the first selected invoice.

If the company and/or the pay-by BP is modified, the mandate reference is modified accordingly.

SEEINFO 

  • This field, subject to an entry transaction, is displayed only if activity code SDD - SDD management is active and if company parameter SDDMGT - SDD management (chapter TC, group SDD) is set to 'Yes'.
  • The company/pay-by BP combination must be unique.
  • The mandate reference can no longer be modified once the mandate created.

  • ISR/QR reference number (field BVRREFNUM)

This field displays the ISR reference number created for an invoice if the SWICUSBVR - Swiss ISR usage Sales (LOC chapter, SWI group) parameter is set to Yes. If a new invoice is created, the ISR reference number is calculated when the invoice is saved.

When the SWICUSBVR parameter is set to Yes, this field only displays a value if an ISR payment term is used and the invoice currency is CHF.

If you copy an invoice, the existing ISR number is removed. A new number is created when the copied invoice is saved.

Refer to the Swiss legislation guide available from the How to tab of the Online Help Center for a global view of how to use the ISR.

This field displays the ISR payment bank determined for the invoice if the SWICUSBVR - Swiss ISR usage Sales (LOC chapter, SWI group) parameter is set to Yes.

When the SWICUSBVR parameter is set to Yes, this field only displays a value if an ISR payment term is used and the invoice currency is CHF.

The payment bank information is used to print the necessary sender’s bank account information on ISR payment forms. Use this bank account as the destination account when paying the invoice.

The ISR payment bank is only considered in the ISR process.

The ISR payment bank for the invoice is determined by the Payment bank ISR/QR field in one of the following functions. The system pulls the information from the first entry found.

  1. From the BP/Company section of the Business partner (GESBPS) function.
  2. From the Financial section of the Customer (GESBPC) function.
  3. From the Details section of the Sites (GESFCY) function.

If you copy an invoice, the existing payment bank is removed and the payment bank determination is repeated when the copied invoice is saved.

Refer to the Swiss legislation guide available at the online help center for a comprehensive overview of setup and usage of this function.

Grid Analytical

  • No. (field NUMLIG2)

 

 

The dimensions entered here will be used as default values for invoice lines.

Close

 

Tab Lines

Presentation

The grid in this section is used to characterize each of the invoice lines from an accounting point of view:

Nature

If the account is subject to dimensional accounting, it is necessary to define its nature. At general accounts level, it is possible to define a nature linked automatically to an account. The nature field cannot then be modified.
SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on General accounts for further information.
On the other hand, if a nature screen has been defined, it is possible to choose a different analytical nature conforming to the screen.

Analytical dimensions.

If the accounting amount is not distributed over several analytical dimensions, the allocation field cannot be assigned. The entry is achieved directly in the following columns, in the dimension concerned, for each of the dimension types.

Default dimensions can be defined at the level of the nature, but those defined by the default dimension processing have priority.
SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on the default dimensions.

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Grid Details

  • No. (field NUMLIG)

It is the line number.

The site of each line can be different from the header site. In this case, the generated journal will be balanced site by site using inter-site link accounts.
It is possible to modify the site on the line and so to carry out the inter-site operations in the same legal company. The reciprocal entries are generated automatically on the reciprocal accounts previously set up.
SEEREFERTTO Refer to the documentation Reciprocal accountsfor further explanations.
By default, the site proposed is that defined in the invoice entry header.

Specificities linked to intercompany invoices (GESBICI and GESBISI functions protected by the activity code INTCO - Intercompany transactions):
When entering intercompany invoices, this field will display only the site of the companies that were defined in Intercompany account mapping.

  • A financial site belonging to another company can be selected.
  • A target company must be mapped to the source company and the invoice parameter INTCPYINV - Intercompany invoices (TRS chapter, INV group) must be set to 'Yes' for the target company.

 

  • Ctrl. (field SAC)

This check box is only available if the Control check box is selected in the Chart of accounts function (GESCOA).

Select this check box to indicate that the account is associated with a BP.

 

In certain fields on the screens, use of access codes have been incorporated. These codes are used to restrict access to data by certain users.

In order that a field can have an access code available to a user, it is necessary that this code is present in this table. As a function of the rights which are assigned to the user, he/she can then consult or modify the field.

The access codes are equally used to restrict access to certain functions started by buttons on the screens.

It is necessary to assign each access code defined in the grid.

  • Authorization to consult/display (a field)
  • Authorization to modify (a field)
  • Authorization to execute (an action)

The choice of accounting allocation is determined by:

  • a control account: the account that is associated with it is displayed by default, the BP must be specified.
  • a general account,
  • a BP: the control account code and the associated account are displayed by default.
  • Settlement discount (field FLGDEP)

This field is used to specify if an invoice line is subject to discount.
This field can be viewed and accessed only if:

  • a discount code (containing negative rates) is specified on the invoice, 
  • parameters GERDSC - Early discount/late charge and BRIDSC - Discount on tax are disabled.
  • Amount - tax (field AMTNOTLIN)

Enter in this field the ex-tax amount of the recorded operation.
When the amount is negative, it is passed as a credit in accounting in the case of a supplier invoice and as a debit in the case of a credit memo.
SEEWARNING The invoice cannot have a negative ex-tax and tax-incl. total: it is possible for some on line ex-tax amounts but the ex-tax amount of the header is always positive.

When the account on the line is liable for tax, the tax field is accessible for entry. It is initialized with the tax code associated with the account or with the tax code associated with the rule.
SEEREFERTTO Refer to the documentation on the SAITAX - Tax Code Mandatory parameter (CPT chapter, VAT group).
Based on the context, it is necessary to verify that this tax code corresponds to the tax actually applicable, or it should be modified.
The tax code defines the rate, the rules and the terms for the tax deduction applicable to the operation.
SEEINFO The 'Enter tax' option is available from the Actions icon. You can specify the taxes other than VAT (additional and/or special taxes) likely to affect the VAT calculation and therefore the tax excl. and tax-inc. amounts.
Only one tax code consistent with the legislation and the group of the site company can be entered.
SEEREFERTTOThe general principles linked to the multi-legislation setup are detailed in the
GRPLEG field help.

Define the default value of the Sage Sales Tax (SST) tax code. This tax code is recognized by the Avalara system and is used to identify line types for fiscal purposes.
All document costs are sent to SST in the form of document lines. It can include for example transport costs, handling costs and on-line product costs. This field is only available when the LTA activity code is activated.

  • Tax amount (field AMTVAT)

Enter a tax amount if the standard calculation for the tax amount on the line does not apply. If the tax code changes, these amounts are reinitialized.

  • Amount + tax (field AMTATILIN)

No help linked to this field.

  • Sales type (field SALTYP)

This field is currently no longer used.

  • Comment (field DES)

You can manually enter a comment or add content from another field using the following characters:

/ displays the account title

= displays the comment from the previous line

// displays content from the first Comment field in the Header section.

In the case of an invoice generated automatically after validating the sales of fixed assets, this field contains the reference of the sold fixed asset and cannot be modified.

The work unit entry is defined is determined when setting up an analytical account. It is associated with a unit specifying its default value (in reporting currency).
SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on Natures for further information.
This unit is reused on journal entry.

  • Quantity (field QTY)

The quantity is automatically calculated by dividing the Ex-tax amount (converted into reporting currency) by the work unit value.
This value can be modified.

After invoice validation, the project reference the invoice line is allocated to can no longer be modified.

 

  • Distribution (field DSP)

This field is used to define the allocation methods for the line amount on the different dimensions of each dimension type.
These methods are defined as follows:

  • the entry of an analytical allocation key previously configured,
    SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on Allocation keys for further information.
  • Amount : it is possible to distribute the amount to as many sub-amounts as required,
  • Percentage: a processing launches a calculation based on the sum of the coefficients used for the allocation.

For instance:
On a basis of 100, a coefficient of 10 will be read as 10%.
But, on a basis of 50, a coefficient of 10 will be equivalent to 20 %.

SEEINFOFor these two latter cases, it is possible to pre-initialize the allocation with an existing key. The final display is '$'.

The setup determines if the analytical dimensions can be modified. They are initialized based on the setup of the default dimension.

In creation mode, if no order line has been entered and the project code is modified, the analytical dimensions are reset based on the setup of default dimensions.

In creation mode, as in modification mode, if an order line is entered and the project code is modified, the analytical dimensions are not reset.

Totals

  • Discount basis (field BASDEP)

The discountable base is only displayed if the two following conditions are met:

  • a discount code (containing negative rates) is specified on the invoice, 
  • parameters GERDSC - Early discount/late charge and BRIDSC - Discount on tax are disabled.

The discountable basis depends on:

SEEINFO If the user wants to add a discount after saving the invoice, the discount code addition can be performed via button [Open items]. Fields "Discount" and "Discount basis" will be hidden and the discountable basis will be equal to the tax incl total.

 

  • Total excluding tax (field TOTNOT)

 

 

  • Total including tax (field TOTATI)

This field indicates the tax-incl. result including the tax calculation by tax basis. This information appears when printing report ARCTTC2. The detail of the tax incl. calculation is obtained by right click on the total amount.

SEEINFO The detailed calculation is stored in tables SVCRVAT and SVCRFOOT.

To access the detailed tax statistics based on 'Sage Sales tax' (SST), click the link in the tax-incl. total field. This option is only available if the document is issued by Sage Sales Tax (SST).

If SST is used, the recording and cancellation of a fiscal document are taken into account during the:

  • invoice creation,
  • invoice recording,
  • invoice deletion.

If the tax is not calculated, the invoice is not created.

SEEINFO 

  • For Sage Sales Tax, the detailed calculation is stored in table LTAVCR relating to documents, tax authorities and rates imposed by SST.
  • You can access this option from the Actions icon.

Note: To take advantage of this, you must activate the SVC - Periodic accruals activity code and the SVCFLG - Accruals generation parameter (TC chapter, SVC group) must set to Yes.

Account Structures

Select this option to assign an account structure for the line. The account structure is used to predefine the group of accounting and analytical postings for a journal and to load them directly on entry. Applying an account structure can be proposed by default after entering the tax excluded invoice amount. The structure used is the one defined in the customer record in the Financial section.

See the documentation on Account structures for further information.

As for the amounts, from the assignment coefficients defined in the structure, they are automatically calculated from the tax-excl. amount of the invoice.

Customer notes

This button is used to display or modify the open items associated with the current supplier invoice.

Payment methods associated to open items cannot be modified from:

  • a Sage Exchange Processing payment method towards a payment other than Sage Exchange,
  • a payment method other than Sage Exchange towards a Sage Exchange Processing payment method.

The open item lines are updated if there is a modification of the mandate reference in the header of a customer BP invoice. However, a modification of the mandate reference in an open item line does not cause a modification on the header mandate reference.

Once the invoice has been validated, the mandate reference can still be modified in the open item entry grid, but not in the header.

If an open item has been entirely or partially paid, it is not possible to modify the SDD payment method. This is because the mandate reference has already been used to pay a part of the payment. It is thus necessary to split the open item schedule to be able to change the payment method.

This button is used to perform the accounting posting of the current supplier invoice in order to have its entry.

Error messages

In addition to the generic error messages, the following messages can appear during the entry :

XXX: This is not a financial site

The site selected for the invoice record is not defined as a financial site. Therefore it cannot receive accounting entries.

Period not open

The posting date for the invoice is incorrect because it does not fall in an open period range for the company.

Incorrect date

The invoice posting date is incorrect because it falls in a fiscal year that is not yet created or it does not correspond to an actual date. This same message also appears if the start/end dates for the duration of the service (see the Lines tab) are inconsistent.

: Parameter code does not exist

This message appears when a parameter required for the generation of an account posting is missing.
For example, this can arise when the setup of the document type (for example: customer invoice) is incomplete (no number sequence number for the documents).

'BP incompatible with the control account'

The choice of the control account for the invoice posting is incorrect because it must be of Customer type rather than Supplier, Sales Rep, etc.
Similarly, at the invoice line level, the BP and the control account must be of a compatible type.

Nonexistent control account

The control account used does not correspond to existing/referenced data.

Credit memo without invoice number

This is a simple warning message that the credit memo being entered has not been linked to an invoice. Indeed, it is not mandatory to link a credit memo to an invoice, no matching is generated upon credit memo validation.

Invoice in currency XXX

The invoice identified as the source of the credit memo is invalid because the characteristics of these two elements must be identical as far as the currency is concerned.

Invoice of customer XXX

The credit memo cannot be linked to an invoice where the bill-to customer is different.

Invoice on the control account XXX

The credit note cannot be linked to an invoice whose control account is different.

Invoice on site XXX

The site to which the credit memo posting invoice is attached does not correspond to the site of the credit memo.

Invoice not validated

The choice of the credit memo posting invoice is not correct as long as the invoice is not validated in accounting.

Dimension n Line: 'Dimension mandatory on dimension type X'

The analysis having been defined as mandatory for dimension type X and since the account structure called and executed does not contain any analysis for this dimension type, the invoice lines are pre-loaded without the analysis even though they should contain it.

XXX: Account reserved for site XXX

The site linked to the account is not compatible with the invoice posting site.

Account class prohibited on this journal type

The account selected for the invoice line posting must not be of type Exceptional, that is to say Revenue, Expenses or BP, etc.

Impossible to determine the control account

As soon as the invoice line relates to a BP, it is necessary to define the auxiliary BP and the associated control account.

XXX: Validity dates exceeded

The account/nature/distribution key/dimension validity dates are incompatible with the invoice posting date.

VAT type tax

In the Tax 1 and Tax 2 fields in the VAT entry screen for the line, only the Additional or Special type tax codes can be used.

This is not a VAT type tax

Conversely, in the VAT field of this entry screen, as well as in the VAT field of the invoice line, the only VAT codes that are authorized are those of the VAT type.

XXX: Nature reserved for site XXX

The site linked to the nature is not compatible with the invoice posting site.

Distribution reserved for site XXX

The site linked to the analytical distribution is not compatible with the invoice posting site.

Distributions total incorrect

The analytical distribution (amount) that has been entered cannot be validated because the total of the distributed amounts does not correspond to the invoice line amount.

Distribution line no 1: YYY Dimension reserved for site XXX

The choice of analytical allocation key is incorrect because one of the dimensions contained in it is linked to a site different to the invoice's.

XXX: Prohibited with the nature

The analytical dimension used is not accepted because the combination of this dimension with the analytical nature of the line has been defined as prohibited.

XXX: Prohibited with dimension XXX

The analytical dimension entered is not compatible with the other dimension entered. The combination of these two dimensions has been defined as prohibited.

Mandatory dimension on dimension type X

The posting on dimension type X having been defined as mandatory, the field must be entered.

Mandatory field

Some of the fields must be entered for the invoice posting to be carried out: the site, the customer code, the invoicing currency, the pay-by BP.

Tax incl. inferior to the Ex-tax

This non-blocking warning message simply warns the user that the ex-tax amount entered in the invoice header is inferior to the entered tax inc. amount. Both amounts can be modified as long as the journal is not performed.

One invoice per credit memo (Parameter BELVCS)

In the case of a credit memo linked to several invoices, a control prevents the credit memo from being attached to the various invoices. The user must create as many credit memos as there are invoices.

'Field error' 'Invoice Type'
'IN1 [LEG 1] : Document type IN2 : Record does not exist for the current legislation [LEG 1]'

This message is displayed when the legislation of the entry type linked to the invoice type does not match the invoice legislation.

Mandatory ex-tax or tax-incl. amount

When creating the invoice, this message is displayed if the Amount -tax field, or Amount +tax field, is not entered and the HEAAMTBPC - Cust. inv. header amt. ctrl. parameter (TRS chapter, INV group) is set to Ex -tax and Tax -incl. amounts to be entered.

BP invoice creation impossible: Inconsistent invoice number versus previous invoice date

This error message displays when you try to sell a fixed asset with inconsistent invoice dates.The date sold entered in a BP customer invoice cannot be earlier than the date on the previous A/R invoice, which is noted in the error message. This control is enforced when the Chronological control check box is selected in the Sequence number definition (GESANM) for the entry typed linked to the specified invoice type. As a result, the fixed asset is not sold.
