Need to change the Shipment Date on Closed Sales Invoices

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by windchimes 75

Hello all.

Hear goes, we are running 2 parallel systems. We use the delivery date as the final sales date, as that is when we collect the funds.  In some instances we are doing the final invoice and delivery after the fact, so we have now closed those invoices on the Sale. However no one changed the date to the correct delivery date, we need to go back in and change the delivery date to the actual date we delivered the goods. Can we do this directly in NAV without as a normal use of the system, or back end coding. I know the Sales Invoice Lines, Sales Invoice Header will need to be updated to the correct date, I also see other tables with that shipment date.

Any words of wisdom to give a newbie some insight.

Thanks

Evan

    Hi,

    Unfortunately not straight forwards as there is a lot going on in the background when you ship and invoice the sale

    Not sure if this would meet your requirements but NAV has functionality called pre-payments, this allows you to invoice before you ship, leaving the sale open and able to have the real shipment information captured later

    It also handles the financials really well by processing the pre-payment to a specific account, then reversing it out and into the correct account when the final ship and invoice is done?
