Using GP to invoice upon order Receipt

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 80

We are evaluating use of Dynamics GP in our sales process, but I (and the consultants we are engaged with) cannot seem to figure out how to allow fulfillment to occur after invoicing.

What we are looking to do is to enter an order which is invoiced without being fulfilled.  After we have sufficient product, we would then fulfill the order and Inventory would be updated.

I appreciate any direction you can provide,

Mitch Gaffigan

    Hi Mitch,

    Richard and Warren both give you good advice. While it's true you cannot invoice an item until it is fulfilled, you can override the shortage and fulfill the invoice. Your inventory will go negative, but when you receive the sold inventory, the balance will return to zero.

    Kind regards,

    Leslie

    Mitch,

    Look in SOP Setup for the Invoice Type.  See if "Use Seperate Fulfillment Process" is unmarked.  Unmark it!!

    Next Invoice using that Invoice Type.  If there is an insufficient qty on hand, a box will pop up asking you what you want to do, select "Override Shortage".   The qty fulfilled will update to the qty invoiced.  

    You can now post the invoice even though you did not have a sufficient qty on hand.   On Hand Qty in Inventory will go negative.    When you get them in stock, the On Hand Qty will go up.

    Hope this helps, (and that I understood the issue).

    In GP Sales Order Processing, items cannot be invoiced until they have been allocated and fulfilled. The allocation and fulfilment process is what decreases the quantity available and then when you invoice it decrements the quantity on hand and the quantity allocated. Perhaps there is a third party product that does it differently but native GP needs to allocate and fulfill first and then invoice.
