How to Find Invoices Paid by Check in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

By Ted Cox | October 5, 2017

Have you ever needed to find invoices paid by check in Microsoft Dynamics AX? There are times when a vendor calls you up and asks if payment has been sent for specific invoices. Dynamics AX 2012 offers two different forms that you can quickly view from the vendor record that allows you to search both on vendor invoices and check number.

1. Navigate to Accounts payable > Common > Vendors > All vendors.
2. Search the vendor in question and then from the action pane, select Transactions
