Batch posting purchase invoices - overriding posting date

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by alieight

We have a relatively complex approval workflow and we have therefore set up job queues to batch post purchase invoices and purchase orders once approved. These are working fine.

However, we have an issue, particularly over month end, where an invoice has been entered on (say) 30 November, but not approved until after November is closed and cannot be posted to.

I'd like to be able to overwrite the posting date (not the document date) to reflect the actual workdate it is posted, however the report parameters will only let me enter an actual date (dd/mm/yy).

Is there any way this can be done? If there is a report / codeunit I can run as part of the month end close (eg that picks up any non-posted invoices and updates the date to the first of the next month) that would probably work, but I have no idea if there is one.

You can build a codeunit that check the approved order and change the posting date. You can then run the codeunit before the batch post.
