Subcontract PO goods receipt posting

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hi Experts

We use subcontract worksheet to create PO from Production order routing

and then do the goods receipt posting in PO

And there is only capacity journal with quantity posted from goods receipt. 

No G/L posting and no value updated in Production Order statistic 

G/L posting for WIP are generated during purchase invoice  (e.g. dr.WIP Cr. subcontact cost applied)

but the invoice received may be not in the same period and production is completed

So this make accounting book and production cost incorrect.

So I would ask if there is any way to setup G/L posing happened in goods receipt of subcontract PO?

or there is other workaround

Thanks so much

Regards,

Marco

 

Best regards,

Marco

    Yes, it is possible to set up GL posting in the goods receipt of a subcontract PO. To do this, you will need to configure the posting profiles in the subledger accounting module. The posting profile determines which accounts are used for the different types of transactions, such as goods receipts or invoice postings.

    You will need to create a new posting profile or modify an existing one to include the desired GL accounts and dimensions for the goods receipt transaction. Once this is set up, the GL posting will occur automatically when the goods receipt is processed.

    Alternatively, if you prefer to use a workaround, you can manually create a WIP journal entry to update the Production Order statistic with the cost of the components received. This can be done after the goods receipt and before the purchase invoice is received. However, this method may require more manual effort and may not be as efficient as automating the GL posting through the posting profile.

    When it comes to manufacturing this is the blog site to rely on. The link relates to your query and there is a comment relating to your question. Looks to be standard - manufacturing hasn’t changed much since it was written: www.olofsimren.com/.../

    In which case you might have to come up with a journal to post an accrual for the impending costs. Then later reverse it once invoicing is complete.

    Log it as an idea on the dynamics community idea site. If it doesn’t already exist

    Hi Josh,

    I check that post expected cost to g/l flag is activated before.

    no g/l posting of subcontact goods receipt.

    thank you

    Inventory setup has an option to post expected cost to the g/l. I’d try that given you only have expected costs at the point of receipt
