While experimenting with the business functions in GnuCash, I think I

If I select the Vendor->New Bill and I enter only the Vendor name,

If instead I select the Vendor->New Bill and I enter the Vendor name
AND the job, after pressing ok I'm presented with the "Edit Invoice"
tab.

Is it intended or should I open a bug report?

Hi Cristian,

I had to experiment a bit before I could reproduce this. There is indeed
a bug: autocompletion in the jobs field doesn't distinguish between
vendor and customer jobs. So when you start typing a job name which auto
completes to a customer job, a customer invoice will be created (for the
customer that owns the job) instead of a vendor bill. This is a side
effect of bug 625505 [1].

Thanks Geert, [1] is surely the same problem I reported when it's clear that there is a difference between customer and vendor jobs. In fact, I was expecting only a unique job definition to which you can link customer (generally one) and vendors. I was simulating a scenario where you get commissioned by a customer for a job and you need materials from different vendors to accomplish the job. At the moment I can't see the advantages to have jobs defined separately for customer and vendors. Can you make some example so that I can better understand (and document) the principles behind the implementation?

Thanks
Cristian
