Autotask Purchase Orders – Breaking Change - Vendor Invoice Number

Autotask update v2022.1 has introduced a breaking change by not populating the Vendor Invoice Number

Update: Our team has released a temp fix that is in pre-production release, please contact our support team for access.

The latest release of Autotask, 2022.1, has introduced a breaking change in the Autotask API where it is no longer populating the Vendor Invoice number. 

This change will predominantly affect customers who are using Xero Bills and have the "Use Vendor Invoice Number..." option selected.

 

Work around:
