Posting Sales Invoices but not to the GL

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 46

Hi, I want to enter some beginning invoices that when posted, won't hit the GL.  The reason is that I want to have the detail of what is open AR.  This is a new year for us using BC so I will enter the Trial Balance as one big JE, so I don't need the invoices to hit the GL.

How can I post an invoice that won't also post to the GL

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    I am not sure we have a such a way that we can post the Invoice without hitting GL account, although if you want to hit the AR as a opening balance you can use General Journal as opening balances for your AR but in that case too GL account will be hit.

    Otherwise wait for the expert advise here.

    Thanks.

    It is possible to have recorders in Posted sales invoices with out having to post them.

    You should ask your CSP partner for assistance in importing data to those tables so it is done in a way that will not break the integrity of the system.

    1. all posted sales invoices will hit the GL

    2. You could do posting setup that posting these invoices will have a zero GL impact but there will be general ledger entries and customer ledger entries and if using items, item ledger entries

    3. For historical data, you should NOT import to the posted document tables.

    4. Recommend that your work with your partner.
