DELETING SALES ORDERS AND WAREHOUSE SHIPMENTS

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 47

Does deleting outstanding warehouse shipments and sales orders in NAV2018 have any financial implications in the system. I have a list of sales orders with partially shipped and invoiced quantities. these sales orders will not be fully shipped, what's the best way to remove them from the list of sales orders. the same applies to the warehouse shipments.

    Hi, deleting outstanding documents before posting will not affect financial data. NAV even allows you to delete posted documents like Posted Sales Invoices. Although it is not recommended, it will not affect financial data, because financial data from Ledger Entries.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    for warehouse shipments, you can delete but the items will be in the ship bin. you need to move those to the proper bins.

    no financial impacts.

    for sales orders , here is a good answer to previous same question: community.dynamics.com/.../close-a-sales-order-after-partial-shipment

    Archive the order. You can then use the archive sales orders data for reporting. Edit the sales order by adjusting the “Quantity” to match the “Qty. Shipped”. Delete the order or have the “Delete Invoiced Sales Orders” routine running on the job queue. You can run the mentioned routine manually too.

    Reporting wise I would use the last version of the archived sales order with the posted sales shipments and posted sales invoices.

    Worth noting that you can set orders to archive automatically, but on deletion. In your scenario you need it to happen before that as you can only delete it went it’s rolled down to match the shipped qty.: docs.microsoft.com/.../across-how-to-archive-documents
