Edit the schedule for a recurring AP supplier invoice

Recurring AP supplier invoices don't support custom fields, or custom fields defined in an AP supplier invoice. If you need to use a custom field in a recurring AP supplier invoice, configure the custom field as not required. For details about creating custom fields, see Define custom fields for business-specific data.
