Vendor Invoice Batch
====================

**Batch Type Key:** ``vendor_invoice``

**Purpose:** (DEPRECATED) Process a vendor invoice

**Default Handler:** :class:`~rattail:rattail.batch.vendorinvoice.VendorInvoiceHandler`

.. warning::
   This batch type should be considered deprecated.  It still exists
   and may be used, but that may not always be the case.  If possible
   please use :doc:`purchase` instead.

Data for this type of batch usually comes from a spreadsheet or
similar file, as obtained directly from the vendor.

Executing this batch does nothing at all by default; you would need a
custom handler to make it useful.
