Connection between Posting Types and System Event
- IP1 Description of use: Preliminary Supplier
Invoice and Manual Supplier Invoice.
When posting a supplier invoice either directly or preliminary, the supplier’s
ledger account will be posted automatically due to this posting type. It
also occurs in: Payment/Supplier Payments. When paying the supplier invoice,
the debt will be offset.
Debit or credit posting: Supplier debts are normally posted as credits, if
it is not a credit invoice, then the debt is reduced on the debit side. When
paying the invoice, the posting is on the reverse side.
- IP3 Description of use: Preliminary Supplier
Invoice and Manual Supplier Invoice.
When posting a supplier invoice either directly or preliminary, this posting
type will be used in order to post the tax correctly

Invoice and Manual Supplier Invoice.
When posting a supplier invoice preliminary, this posting type will be used
in order to post the so far unknown cost. This posting type will be used
again in Manual Supplier Invoice and Final
