Vendor invoice lines for expense categories
A vendor invoice in Dynamics 365 Project Operations can have vendor invoice lines for expense categories. Project managers can use vendor invoice lines for expense categories to record the costs of services that are procured as expense categories.
Vendor invoice lines for expense categories might or might not reference a subcontract line for expense categories. If a vendor invoice line for expense categories references a subcontract, project managers are able to match and verify the expenses that are being invoiced by the vendor invoice line against expenses that are recorded on these expense categories and approved by project managers on the project.
The following fields are on vendor invoice lines for expense categories:
Total amount - Shows the total of the vendor invoice, calculated with Subtotal + Sales Tax.
Project - Shows the name of the project that services are being invoiced on.
Transaction category - Shows the transaction category that's being invoiced. You need to create an expense category for the selected transaction category. The system uses Transaction category and Unit values as default, or it uses a computed value for the Unit price field on the vendor invoice line.
