post shipped goods as In-transit

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 125

Our consultant said that when i post an item as shipped, the item just vanish  out of our stock..

In accounting, whenever an item is delivered, it is considered as In-transit, an inventory still in the seller's possesion until the consignee or the customer receives it.

how can we make it according to this process when recording shipments?

Thanks and more power

    If you don't use WMS, this is not possible. When you post shipment, you post your inventory reduction and on GL, that will be debit value on COGS Account (interim) and credit value on Inventory Account (interim). If customer doesn't want to receive it, you can use "Undo Shipment", and you will get opposite postings.

    If you don't like it, you can use WMS. You can register Pick when you send items to your customer (and it is still in transit). This document has not post reduction, but only register. When your customer receive this items, you can post shipment. But, this is not the best business scenario.

    WMS is Warehouse Management System. WMS is modul in NAV with Pick and Put-away documents.

    I said that is not the best business scenario, because these document have different purpose, but you can use as you asked.

    The best business scenario is that you post shipment when you run to delivery items. If your client receive these items, you will post invoice. If customer don't want to receive items, you will post "Undo Shipment".
