Receivings Transaction Entry Dsitributions

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi,

We're upgrading from Dynamics GP 9.0 to Dynamics GP2015r2 and we are stumbling on an issue with the Receivings Transaction Entry Distributions, since we used to amend the Distribution amounts to reflect the proper amounts.

You cannot change the PURCH account at the summary level. Change the inventory account for the line item instead.

We are not concerned with inventory control and thus changes to the distribution will not affect our inventory.

We have searched about this online and seems to be enhanced functionality as from GP 10.0, however we can't seem to find a solution/workaround for this.

Any help please?

    Just an update on this so that anyone who would have a similar issue in the future would have an answer.

    The way forward was to add account distributions of distribution type not PURCH, and thus postings were completed as required successfully.

    We have also confirmed this approach with Microsoft directly.

    I honestly can't remember the details since it's been so long and don't want to give wrong information.  I think the last time I had to use the chunk file was with version 2010.  Something to definitely check with your partner or Microsoft.

    Thanks for your reply.

    We will try and get hold of this file. Would you know if inventory could still be used to keep stock items?

    There used to be a file that you could request from Microsoft that would bypass this.  I haven't had to use it in recent versions, however.  From what I can remember, you only want to use it if you are NEVER going to use the inventory module.  You could try seeing if your partner could request it for you (if it's even still available for GP 2015).

    Otherwise, when receiving, you need to drill in to each individual line item on the receipt and select the purchases account there and that will populate the distributions for you.  It's the blue expansion arrow next to Item on the Receivings Transaction Entry window.  This will open up the Receivings Item Detail Entry.
