# vendorInvoice

query · in the family [Vendor invoice](/reference/vendor-invoice/)

## What it does

Look up one record — a vendor’s invoice — what a supplier billed you against a purchase.

A VendorInvoice by id, within the caller's OWN org-group family; requires authentication. A cross-tenant id reads as null (not-found) AND trips the rootId tripwire server-side.

## What happens

Reads only — changes nothing.

## Who may call it

Capability area: **Reading your records** — Looking up and listing the records of your organization.

- Owner
- System Administrator
- Manager
- Associate Manager
- Warehouse Associate
- Sales Associate
- An API key whose scope allows `api:vendorInvoice`

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | [ID](/types/#scalars) `ID!` | yes | The id of the record. |

## Returns

[VendorInvoice](/types/VendorInvoice/) — A captured vendor bill: the 3-way match and the landed-cost TRUE-UP run from it at capture. NOT a payables subledger. Parent = the PO (the match is per-PO; N invoices per PO are legal — partial-shipment invoicing); invoiceOrgVendorId MAY differ from the PO vendor: ONE construct covers merchandise invoices (match lines) AND cost bills (landed ACTUAL components) — either or both, never neither. CAPTURE stamps matchStatus matched|flagged at tolerance ZERO (price/qty variance FLAGS, never blocks — the flag IS the approval queue until) and posts the landed true-up (actuals vs the receipts NOT-yet-trued estimates per component type -> cost_true_up value-only movements re-weighting each touched book at its CURRENT cost-bearing quantity; the sold-share stays a reports-only fact — the precedent). The (invoiceOrgVendor x normalized invoice number) UNIQ pair is the double-pay gate (CONFLICT/IDENTITY_TAKEN naming the holder; a cancelled holder is taken over). captured is the immutable fact (corrections are compensating entries, never un-capture); cancelled is the doomed terminal (lists filter it).
