I encountered the following situation in AP:
-
Created and released an AP Bill.
-
Reversed the Bill from the Bill screen, which created a Debit Adjustment.
-
In the Debit Adjustment’s Financial tab, the Original Document Ref shows correctly.
-
Released the Debit Adjustment, but did not apply it to the original Bill.
When I went to create a Payment for the original Bill, the system still allowed me to proceed with no warning or comment about the existing Debit Adjustment. Since it was not applied, this could result in duplicate payments/entries.
Question:
Is this the expected system behavior? Shouldn’t the system warn or block payment creation when there is an existing unapplied Debit Adjustment linked to the same Bill? Or is the correct practice always to apply the Debit Adjustment immediately after reversal to avoid this risk?
Shouldn’t there be a system alert or block if a Payment is being created for a Bill that has a full-amount Debit Adjustment linked in Original Document Ref. but not yet applied?
