Payable Invoice Line Volumes

You can process payable invoices with up to 9,980 lines using Lightning Experience.

Warning:
The maximum supported number of payable invoice lines depends on the other Accounting features enabled in your org and on their complexity. For example:
  • Intercompany Accounts or Intercompany Accounts Receivable (A/R).
  • A local chart of accounts structure.
  • Avalara AvaTax external tax calculation.
  • The Primary (Live) Update balance type. To achieve higher document line volumes, use the Primary (On Demand) Update Balance type. For more information, see About Balance Update.
  • Any custom processes or integrations related to the payable invoices in the org.
  • Note that Salesforce limits the number of lines processed in a single operation to 10,000.

Additionally, you can use Datastream to bulk-load payable invoices with up to 9,980 lines from a spreadsheet. For more information about Datastream, see Datastream Overview.

This table shows the achievable number of payable invoice lines, depending on their type and the additional features enabled.

Note:
The achievable number of lines may vary depending on your org's configuration and the factors mentioned above.
