Dynamics 365 Business Central: Financial Management - Use self-billed invoices
<p>Business Central offers full support for self‑billed invoices in the purchase process. Buyers can now generate invoices on behalf of a vendor when a self‑billing agreement is in place. A new Boolean field on the <strong>Vendor Card</strong> page enables this agreement, and all <strong>Purchase Invoices</strong> created for that vendor, whether from <strong>Purchase Orders</strong> or directly, are automatically marked as self‑billed. Vendors can also be assigned a dedicated <strong>No. Series</strong> for self‑billed invoices, ensuring correct document sequencing.</p> <p>A new report layout, <strong>Posted Purchase Invoice – Self‑Billing Invoice</strong>, formats the invoice to align with the sales invoice style, showing buyer company information, vendor details, VAT information, and all essential invoice data.</p> <p>For Danish localizations, the posting process can automatically create <strong>Digital Vouchers</strong> when you enable self‑billing, ensuring compliance with local audit and documentation rules. To prevent conflicts between buyer‑issued and supplier‑issued documents, vendors with a self‑billing agreement can't receive inbound e‑documents for accounts payable. This guarantees data integrity and avoids duplicate or contradictory documents in the purchase flow.</p> <p>Business Value:</p> <p>Self‑billing reduces operational friction by allowing buyers to generate invoices on behalf of suppliers under a mutual agreement. This improves accuracy, accelerates processing, and eliminates delays caused by missing or inconsistent supplier‑issued invoices. With automated layouts, posting rules, and vendor configuration, you can streamline both compliance and internal controls while ensuring clean financial records.</p> <p>Enabled for:</p> <p>Enabled for end users automatically</p>
