Is it possible to post invoices in Flexible Billings to a prior period

Posted on by Kristin Allen

I have the option selected in Project Controller to allow prior period postings but it seems that selection doesn't apply to all of the project series modules. Or am I missing something? I can change period to post field in Invoice Posting & Adjustment screen but just get an error that it's in a prior period and it reverts back to the current period to post.

This is an ongoing need not just a one-time deal.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Is it possible to post invoices in Flexible Billings to a prior period

Kristin,

Flexible billings otherwise does not allow prior postings. This is the workaround for that issue:

To post to a prior period using Invoice Posting you would need to change the project controller period back to the period you need to post in. Post the invoice and then change the period back to the current. You will not have to "reclose" project.

If the Invoice is a REVERSAL, then you can use the fiscal period for reversal field to put in the prior period it will copy that period number to the Period field but it will be greyed out.

Then you can run posting and it will post the reversal.

Regular invoices that did not get posted to the prior period would still need to use the workaround mentioned before.
