Application: Purchase Order

Version Reported: n/a

Subject:
Error Log with: "An existing A/P Invoice has been found in receipt/entry number: ", when posting the Receipt or Return Register. The message indicates one or more of the invoices being posted already exist in the A/P Open Invoice File (AP4). The Error Log will list a Receipt/Return Entry number.

Possible Resolution:
Use Receipt of Goods Entry, Receipt of Invoice Entry, or Return of Goods Entry to change the assigned invoice number or delete the receipt or return.

Reviewed the POExxx.SOA file and it appears that there may be orphaned records in the line file. Client is investigating further.

Probably cause will be to reinitialize POE and POF as well as the POV Batch Masterfile.

USE EXTREME CAUTION AND BACKUP ANY FILES PRIOR TO RE-INITIALIZING.
