shipment sales amount v's invoice sales amount

Hi,

We've had a shipment posted with a different month to the actual invoice. The invoice was reversed but it's put a sales amount at a different month under the item code (see below). The G/L all looks fine from a income statement and receivables, but the item stock levels have transactions across two months which means my end of month count is incorrect.

ie the inventory was reversed on invoice date reversing v's the shipment date reversing. I obviously need the sales to reverse on the posted date but need to inventory reversal to match the shipment date. I've tried an item journal - which seems to get the item quantities correct but it still leaves the sales amount (actual) in the item ledger out.

any suggestions

Hello,

If you need the return shipment and the credit memo to be a different date then you should not create a sales credit memo directly.

Instead, you will need to create Sales Return Order and post the return shipment with posting date as the shipment date.
Then, post credit memo from the Sales Return Order with posting date as the invoice date.

For now, if you want to correct this credit memo, you will need to issue a sales invoice with the same data as the sales credit memo to contra them.

Then perform the above mentioned steps.
