Vendor accounted invoice in their books as on 31st March 2021 amount 70,000 and we provisioned amount 65000 for the same invoice.
Now vendor is asking us to give balance Confirmation for 70K. Should we give for 70K or Zero since we haven't accounted but provison
Case 2 : Vendor accounted for 20k and didn't disclose on the same.so we haven't provisioned
Now he asking us give confirmation for 20k
what can be done ?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to handle vendor balance confirmations when there are discrepancies between your company's accounting and the vendor's records. It clarifies that balance confirmations should reflect the actual amounts recorded in your books. If your books show zero outstanding for an invoice the vendor claims, you should confirm zero and provide a reconciliation detailing any provisions made.
When you ask for balance confirmation, it is the amount which is shown in the books which is needed to be disclosed. In case the balance in your books is Zero, you have to give negative confirmation stating that the balance in your books is Zero, followed by a reconciliation statement where you will be disclosing the provision created (for whatever reason).
Hope I am able to clarify your query
