Hi,

For example we will have set of suppliers where only those invoices will be created using External Invoice. Users should not be able create invoices manually for these suppliers. We can have a separate Supplier Group and Invoice Type for these suppliers.

Thanks

Hi,

This would only be possible as a configuration - either a custom event or a BPA (business process automation in IFS Cloud) to present an error message if the user tries to select the supplier which is not allowed.

IFS assumes, that even if the supplier sends external supplier invoices - there could be scenarios where an invoice is entered manually.

Hi @GayanD 

I would suggest a new supplier group to identify those suppliers with external upload. Then create a custom event to stop process for the suppliers with new group. Show an error message that invoice must be created via external supplier invoice.

Hope this helps
