Purchase Invoice

Hi

Looking for best practice advice.

 

Have entered purchase invoices onto system from supplier. Invoicing by supplier has been duplicated in that we had to pay a percentage of the PO and then the balance. Supplier has presented invoices for both the percentage and the full amount.  We have only paid the invoice once. Therefore I have invoices on the system that we do not owe for.  What is my best way to deal with these invoices.  Such a enter dummy credits and put my story with them or should I simply  delete the invoices from the system.  Vat- tax exempt Code 0 - outside the scope of Vat.

 

Looking for guidance on best practice.  Thankin you

Hello ME- 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

We would say delete the second bill that you don't need. If you entered 2 and only paid one, the second one isn't going to be paid, So isn't essentially needed. Only problem you may have is if the unpaid bill falls into a prior VAT period, but then with it falling outside of the scope, it shouldn't make a difference for you.

Thank you for your reply.  If it did fall into a prior VAT period what would you suggest.

Hello ME, so if it did fall into a prior VAT period, it would show as an exception on your taxes section, but with it being outside of the scope it never technically hit any boxes so it should be all good for you.
