Auto Invoice Method Order Entry

Auto Invoice Method Order Entry - 08/04/21 11:51 AM

I think I already know the answer but thought I would ask. We have the auto invoice switch set to "No restriction" in the Company Profile. With this setting it appears to invoice the entire order regardless of whether or not the detail line has been fully shipped.

We have the switch "Default posting to order" turned on. So, for example, we have an order where we input:

Item Qty Ordered Qty Shipped Qty BO

Item A 100.00 100.00 0
Item B 200.00 100.00 100.00

Our packing list prints as we want as above. But when we auto generate the Order to an invoice it ships the entire backorder so our packing list does not match the invoice.

So my question is the auto generate function basically says we are shipping the whole smash like it or not? Since in a perfect world we would like the auto invoice generated to match the packing list.

Not a huge deal hear as we don't use this function often but just curious.

Hello John Hancock,

Yes, if you are Auto-invoicing with the method: No restriction, it will fully ship all lines.

There is a suggestion for a new method to invoice the 'shipped' quantity on the wishlist for a future release.
