Invoice Posting Date taking Sales Order "Order Date" rather than "Work Date"

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 470

We are a bit confused as it seems the invoices are taking the order date as the posting date of the invoice.

So for example if we took a sales order over a month ago and an item on that order came back into stock and it was shipped and invoiced - if they had 30 days payment terms the payment will flash up as due and they wouldn't get the terms on their order?

Is there a way to set it so the date calculations are based on the invoice date as opposed to the sales order date?

I have the same question (0)

    Depending on how you setup Setup in Sales, the invoice day can be

    1. Workday, the day SO is raised

    2. Nothing, you have to add when posting the day you want to be the day of the Invoice

    Right now it seems you have option 1.

    I also have small ext. thats makes its always today, the workday of your system

    Hi Claus, I think you are referring to "Sales & Receivables Setup"?

    If so on the option "Default Posting Date" there is:

    1. Work Date (Currently set as this)

    2. No Date

    Is to set it to your work day not standard and require an extension? Seems odd the posting date isn't the date you hit post as default?
