Cancel Posted Purchase Invoice without undo purchase receipt

Posted on by 17
Is there anyway to cancel posted purchase invoice without auto cancel posted purchase receipt? when i cancel posted purchase invoice the receipt was canceled as well, i need to cancel posted purchase invoice only without canceling the receipt, because the PIC for each posting is different.
 
Thank you

    In Business Central, using the 'Cancel' function will indeed cancel both the posted purchase invoice and the associated purchase receipt simultaneously. Consider using purchase return orders or creating a credit memo with item charges. This allows you to adjust the inventory.

    If you use the 'Cancel' function, it will cancel both the receipt and the invoice simultaneously. If you need to cancel the receipt first and the invoice later due to timing differences, consider using purchase return orders.

    If your goal is to receive a refund for the invoice without removing the item from inventory, I recommend using credit memos with an item charge. This approach will adjust your inventory subledger as well.

    Using only a G/L account will not affect your inventory subledger, leading to inaccuracies in reporting. Additionally, if you sell the item later, your COGS can also be incorrect. I wrote a blog post about this method, which you can find here.

    Hello,
     
    The standard behaviour for cancelling a purchase invoice or posting a purchase credit memo (with item line) will cancel the receipt.
    If you do not want to cancel the receipt, you will need to create a purchase credit memo and post to G/L Account instead of using 'Items'.
