Link Sales Order to Sales Invoice

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Gepoy 496

Hi,

How am I going to link the sales order to sales invoice? I created sales invoice and from invoice, I get the reference of sales shipment. After posting the sales invoice, I notice, there is no reference of sales invoice from the sales order or posted sales shipment. Any idea how will I link the two records? Thank you in advance.

    Sales Order and Sales Invoice are two different document types, you cannot link them, either you start from Sales Order which you will use to ship the products and also create sales invoice (Posted Sales Invoice) and based on the inventory you can have multiple shipments and multiple invoices for a sales order, whereas for a Sales Invoice you can post ship & invoice at the same time but you can have only one posted invoice, but you cannot just link Sales Order and Sales Invoice.

    Gecel,

    Adding to Marco and Suresh's replies... ON a Posted Sales Invoice, you will see the field Order No. This links the Posted Sales Invoice back to the Original Sales Order No.  If you are on a Sales Invoice and you have Shipped the Sales Order, you can use the Function, on the Sales Invoice Lines, Get Shipment Lines. This pulls into the Sales Invoice those Posted Shipment Lines, from the Sales Order, and will link the 2 documents when posted.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Steve
