Hello, we have a situation where our AP group entered some write-off supplier invoices in error.  Their practice is to enter manual invoices that net to 0 and they are in state PaidPosted in closed accounting periods.  They would now like to undo those invoices and enter new ones for payment.  I am aware of supplier payment rollbacks, but I’m assuming that method wouldn’t work with a 0 value invoice since no payment was generated.  Is it possible to undo these invoices and enable the receipts to be matched normally?  Also, is there a better method of doing write-offs?   Thanks.

Hi @reimccabe,

I’m suggesting below 2 alternative solutions.

Option 01

Cancel the supplier invoice and re-create the invoice.

 

Option 02

create new supplier invoice by debiting to GL account which post price variance from the earlier invoice. 

 

Best Regards

Hi Narmada, thanks for the reply.  The invoices in question are quite old and in state PaidPosted and so cancelling is not an option.  I think your second option is what AP was proposing to do, but I’ll check on that.
