Ok, thanks.
And after posting a vendor invoice, does it become an AP Transaction
automatically? Or do I have to use AP Transaction separately in cases
where I don't want the purchased items to be added to the inventory?

The difference between a vendor invoice and an AP transaction is that the former handles income accounts, COGS for unallocated sales, and so forth, and is tied to goods and services, while the AP transaction allows you to enter whatever numbers you want.

Vendor invoices do add all the appropriate lines but currently should only be used when purchasing inventory.
