One of my clients utilizes a third party fulfillment house in addition to regular invoicing. Occasionally, they enter invoices to help clear up discrepancies, in most cases they are entered to post to a prior period. We have been utilizing this method for years, so they are very familiar with the process. We recently upgraded them to SL 2011 FP1 and now it will not post to the prior period. They want to post to the period they use for the invoice date, not the current business date.
One of my clients utilizes a third party fulfillment house in addition to regular invoicing. Occasionally, they enter invoices to help clear up discrepancies between the two systems, in most cases the invoices are entered to post to a prior period. We have been utilizing this method for years, so they are very familiar with the process. We recently upgraded them to SL 2011 FP1 and now the users cannot get these invoices to post to the prior period. They want to post to the period they use for the invoice date, not the current business date/period.
I have unchecked the Post Invoices to Current OM Period in OM Setup and they are trained to change the Period to Post in Sales Journal to the period they want it to post to. In addition, we have Allow Posting to Closed Fiscal periods in all Modules checked in GL Setup.
For some reason it still posting to the current period not the one entered when the Sales Journal is generated. Does anyone know why is would still be posting to the current period, have a missed a setup option?
