Question

The bank account entered in External One-Time Supplier Specific Information is not transferred to AP, no data: payment methods, payment address ID


Forum|alt.badge.img+3

Hello,

We have identified a scenario related to supplier invoices created through the E-Invoicing process.

When an invoice is created from an external supplier invoice for e-invoicing, there is currently no possibility to enter or maintain the Payment Method and Payment Address on the resulting invoice.

In addition, we have observed that one-time supplier information entered during the e-invoicing process is not carried over to the corresponding Manual Supplier Invoice created in the system.

As a result:

  • One-time supplier details entered in the incoming supplier invoice are not populated in the Manual Supplier Invoice.
  • The one-time payment information is not reflected in the Installment Plan or Discount information.
  • There is no option to enter or update the Payment Method and Payment Address after the invoice is created.

This creates a business issue as the supplier invoice cannot be processed for payment using the required payment details.

Do we have any experience with other customers processing supplier invoices through e-invoicing where one-time payment details need to be retained?

Is this the standard behavior in IFS Cloud, or is there any configuration, workaround, or recommended process to ensure that:

  • One-time supplier information is transferred to the Manual Supplier Invoice?
  • Payment Method and Payment Address are available on the created invoice?
  • The payment information is reflected correctly in the Installment Plan and payment process?

Any guidance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
