Start Post Job Invoice / Post Invoice

Purpose:

Posts your computed and printed Job Invoices (RININV3 and RININV4) to AR. In addition, this function automatically generates the Job Invoice Posting report that specifies the AR Sales Journal entries generated as a result of running this function.

Example:

Assume that you have computed and printed a Construction Job Invoice, this function would be run to post these entries to Accounts Receivable.

Usage:

This function runs by generating Sales Journal entries pertaining to the invoices that you have printed but not yet posted.

When T&M lines are posted to the Sales Journal, the GL Income Account (if specified) in the Cost Category is used. Note that if a GL Income Account is not specified in the Cost Category, the one in the Job Cost Code will be used.

When a Progress Billed Job is posted, the PM Next Invoice Status will be set back to Unknown so that it will be eligible for additional updates in the Billing Analytic.  

Important Fields:

Accounting Period Id:
Enter the Accounting Period the entries should be posted to. This period should be Active, with AR, GL and JC History enabled.

Date Effective:
Enter the Effective Date of the posting transactions, or double-click to access the Calendar viewer to do so. The Effective Date must fall within the Accounting Period.

Job Id:
To post all eligible invoices for Jobs, leave this field blank. If you only wish to post the invoices for a specific Job, enter its Id. A range of Jobs can be specified by separating the first and last Id with an underscore: 1001_1025. A series of Jobs can be specified by listing Job Id's separated by commas: 1001,1005,1025.

Invoice Date:
If you only wish to post eligible invoices with a specific Invoice Date, enter date in yyyy-mm-dd format (for example, June 30, 1999 would be input as 1999-06-30). A range of Invoice Dates can be specified by separating the first and last date with an underscore: 1999-06-01_1999-06-30. A series of Invoice Dates can be specified by listing the dates separated by commas: 1999-06-15,1999-06-30.

Bill Cycle:
This field lets you specify the Billing Cycle (maintained in the Job record) of the Invoices to be posted. To post eligible invoices for Jobs with a blank Billing Cycle, simply leave this field blank. To post eligible invoices for jobs that do not contain a blank Billing Cycle field, simply enter the 1-character Billing Cycle designation that you wish to post.

Project Manager Id:
Project Principal Id:
Job Type Id:
Branch Id:
These ranges enable you to limit the posting function to specific Project Managers, Principals, Job Types or Branches. A range of Id’s can be specified by separating the first and last Id with an underscore: 1001_1025. A series of Id’s can be separated by commas: 1001,1005,1025.
