How to update process-based entries

Process-based entries are all entries resulting from the purchase and sales processes. Updating these entries is the first step in the period closure. Use the Purchase Orders Action List and the Sales Orders Action List for this.

 


 

One of the components in the period closure process is updating the process-based entries. These are all entries that result from the purchase and sales processes. Use the Purchase Orders Action List and the Sales Orders Action List for this purpose.

 

 

Step 1: Perform the purchase actions

 

In the Purchase Orders Action List, perform three actions. Check if everything has been ordered and received, and book all process-based purchase invoices.

  1. First, check if everything has been ordered. Perform the Order action if necessary.
  2. Then, book all receipts by performing the Receive Goods action.
  3. Finally, review which purchase invoices still need to be posted. Perform the Enter Invoice action if necessary.

 

Pending orders
If there are pending orders, the Receive Goods and Enter Invoice actions will not be completely empty after updating. Make sure to clean them up at least.

 

 

Step 2: Perform the sales actions

 

Also in the Sales Orders Action List, perform three actions. Check if everything has been delivered and approved, and invoice the order lines that can be invoiced.

  1. First, check if everything has been delivered. Perform the Create Packing Slip action if necessary.
  2. Then, approve all order lines for invoicing by performing the Approve Price action.
  3. Finally, review which sales invoices still need to be posted. Perform the Invoice action if necessary.

 

Pending orders
If there are pending orders, you will first need to assess whether the packing slips have been created for these orders and whether the orders have actually been delivered.
