Create A/P Invoice
Create an A/P Invoice to record a vendor bill. The form supports standalone vendor invoices and copy-from-commerce creation from a confirmed Goods Receipt.

Accessing the Page
Section titled “Accessing the Page”From A/P Invoices, click New Invoice, or navigate directly to /finance/ap/invoices/new. The legacy alias /finance/ap/invoices/create opens the same form.
To create from a Goods Receipt, use the list page’s New from Goods Receipt action. The portal opens a source picker, loads the receipt, and prompts for invoiceable lines and quantities.

Source Flow
Section titled “Source Flow”When launched with /finance/ap/invoices/new?fromCommerce=...&docId=..., the form locks the vendor and currency from the source document, copies payment terms, price list, contact, addresses, reference, and remarks, and opens a line picker. Confirming the picker creates the invoice and preserves source-line tracking.
