    Hi Vinay,

    There are many blogs that are available for this. Just search the internet for 'purchase order posting in AX 2012', 'Sales order posting in AX 2012' you will get many examples. For starter check: gfeaxblog.wordpress.com/.../

    Good morning Vinay,

    You can identify the transactions that will be posted from the inventory posting matrix that I shared in the next screenprint. 

    ipm.png

    In general, for an ordinary stocked product, the following accounting vouchers are created:

    Step 1: Product receipt posting

    DR: Product receipt

    CR: Purchase expenditure uninvoiced

    DR: Purchase expenditure uninvoiced

    CR: Purchase accrual

    At the end of the day you have a posting that debits inventory and credits a liability account. 

    Step 2: Post invoice

    This reverses all postings from step 1 and makes some additional entries. Usually as follows:

    DR: Purchase inventory receipt

    CR: Purchase expenditure for product

    DR: purchase expenditure for product

    CR: Accounts payable

    These are a number of postings but by analyzing the transaction and posting type of your voucher you can easily see what is posted and when. 

    Best regards, 

    Ludwig

    Hi Vinay,

    The transactions that you see on the 'expenditure accounts' are 'in between' transactions that are just needed for technical reasons to integrate the general ledger with the subledgers. If you exclude those accounts - which offset each other because they are posted with the same amount on the DR and CR side - then you get the following (summarized) transactions.

    Product receipt

    DR; Product receipt

    CR: Purchase accrual

    The idea of this posting is that your inventory value increases and that you post a temporary liability on the accrual account.

    Invoice

    DR: Inventory

    CR: Accounts payable

    With the invoice your inventory value increases and your liabilities increase.

    Note that the invoice posting reverses the product receipt posting to avoid a double counting.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Thanks Ludwig,

    I got Some Clarity,

    When the product has been received in the warehouse the below entry has been posted :

    DR: Product receipt

    CR: Purchase expenditure uninvoiced

    DR: Purchase expenditure uninvoiced

    CR: Purchase accrual

    when invoice has been posted the below entry has been posted :

    DR: Purchase inventory receipt

    CR: Purchase expenditure for product

    DR: purchase expenditure for product

    CR: Accounts payable.

    Purchase expenditure uninvoiced DR and CR cancelled the entry remaining is :

    DR: Product receipt

    CR: Purchase accrual

    Purchase accrual is temporary Liability but where it has been reversed and what about Product receipt.

    Please help me out.

    Regards

    Vinay

    Hello Vinay,

    What you write is correct except for the last transaction where you say that

    DR: Product receipt

    CR Purchase accrual

    remains.

    This transaction should be reversed at the time you post the invoice.

    Please double check the invoice voucher and check also the related vouchers created to get the full picture.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
