Drop Ship Invoicing Issues

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Kenn Matayor 20

Dear Community,

 I am having an issue with the follow:

We place an order consisting of two (2) items, one item is in stock and the other is to be drop shipped.

Our policy has been to invoice a drop ship item only after we have received the invoice from our vendor (primarily for freight charge issues).

Continuing on, we would like to invoice the item that is in stock and shipped from our warehouse, and then we would like to backorder the item that is being drop shipped, until we receive the invoice from our vendor, where upon we will invoice the drop shipped item.

We try to backorder the drop shipped item to do this but we get a window that says we cannot backorder an item that is commited to a purchase order.

Does anybody have a solution for this, you help is much appreciated.

P.S. we would prefer to not have to go into the purchase order and uncommit the item, because this seems like it would be a lenghty process.

Thank you,

 Kenn Matayor

    Hi Maniraja

     Even we want the solution for the same problem as Kenn mentioned. Can you please clearly explain the steps for it. Our situation is also that we had identified few items as Drop ship items and do the purchase order process. But the client wants to do the sales invoice for those drop ship items due to Business need. But for arriving at the COGS, the cost of the item should be got after posting the purchase invoice,

     Presently the system does not allow to transfer to invoice without posting the purchase invoice. We can remove the tag (which indicates the link between PO & SO), but we dont want to do it since the cost will not get updated automatically.

    Give us a solution.

    Hi Kenn,

    Whats your available quantity on that site? and whats your backorder quantity?

    Your available quantity is less than backorder quantity right?

    if you don't want to un-commit it from PO then the workaround may be you need to do item transfer (from another site) for shortage.

    Thanks,

    Maniraja
