Vendor Invoice and Payment Report

ExFlow | Inquiries and reports | ExFlow Vendor Invoice and Payment Report

Purpose

The Vendor Invoice and Payment Report provides a comprehensive view of invoices that have been processed and paid within the system. This report has been specifically designed for Australian and New Zealand customers to support external Payment Time Reporting requirements. While it is not the final regulatory submission, it provides the essential invoice and payment data required to generate those reports.

The report includes invoice transactions from both ExFlow and Dynamics 365 Finance (D365), giving users visibility into key stages of the invoice process.

This includes important dates such as:

  • Invoice/document date.
  • Scanning (receipt) date.
  • Payment (settlement) date.

In addition, the report displays relevant voucher details, along with the invoice amounts and paid amounts. Together, this information allows users to analyse the full lifecycle of an invoice, from initial receipt through processing and approval, to final payment.

Primary Uses of the Report
This report is primarily used to:

  • Measure the number of days taken to receive, process, and pay invoices.
  • Assess compliance with internal processes and external payment terms.
  • Provide AU/NZ business units with the data required to support external Payment Time Reporting.
  • Export invoice and payment data for further analysis, including filtering, charting, and custom reporting in Excel.

Pre-requisites

  • ExFlow Version: 2.18.
  • Aging period definitions must be configured in D365 FO.

Summary Section Overview

This section provides clarity on how the summary functionality behaves based on different configuration settings.

  1. When “Summary per Vendor” is Flagged as Yes.
    • The system generates a separate summary for each vendor included in the statement.
    • Each vendor’s payment transactions are grouped and displayed independently.

auto

  1. When “Summary for All” and “Small Business” are Flagged as Yes.
    • A consolidated summary is produced at the end of the report, combining all payment transactions into a single aggregated view.
    • If the Small Business flag is also enabled, the summary specifically highlights or categorises small business vendors within the consolidated report.
    • This configuration is useful for reviewing an overview of the total number of payments made across the date range for all vendors and small business vendors.

Key Report Behaviours

  • Currency used for payment values.
    All payment-related amounts, including “Payment amount in accounting currency”, “Remaining balance in accounting currency”, and “Discount amount”, are shown in the accounting currency.
    This ensures consistency and standardised calculations in the payments (settlement).

  • Multiple payments per invoice.
    If an invoice is paid in multiple instalments, the report will display one line per payment.
    For example, an invoice for EUR 1,650 paid in two instalments (EUR 1,000 and EUR 650) will appear as two separate lines in the report.
    This is because the calculations are based on the individual payment (settlement) dates.

Note: Although multiple lines are shown, the “Sum of Amount in transaction currency” reflects the original invoice value only.

  • Amount in the transaction currency
    The Amount in the transaction currency column displays the document amount exactly as submitted by the supplier, in the original transaction currency.
    If invoices are issued in multiple currencies, the total shown may represent mixed currencies and may not be meaningful. In such cases, amounts must be converted externally into a single currency to obtain an accurate total for that supplier.

  • Credit notes
    Credit notes are included in the report if the credit notes are not allocated against the transactions, but rather allocated through the payment journal.

  • Summary section
    The summary sections provide a high-level overview only. They display the total payment amounts and the number of payments made.

Notes: This report is designed to act as a data source for external Payment Time Reporting requirements (Applicable to Australian and New Zealand customers).

It is not the final regulatory submission format but it provides the necessary underlying data to support that reporting.
