An invoice from a vendor is the bill that is received by the purchaser of goods or services from an outside supplier. The vendor invoice lists the quantities of items, brief descriptions, prices, total amount due, credit terms, where to remit payment, etc. A Vendor Invoice is usually initiated from a Purchase Order like the example shown below. Note buttons “Vendor Invoice” and “Partial Vendor Invoice”.
The Vendor Invoice button creates a new full invoice like the example shown. (Note: This button does not check for existing invoices. Every time the button is clicked it creates a new invoice.)
The entity names should be the current entity names.
