Set up for invoice consolidation
Sales invoices based on goods are mostly created automatically by the system. Certain parameters in the customer account details controls the automated batch process of invoicing. The system use the Shipping Advices (CSA) to produce sales invoices.
The fields in the Invoice Claims area in the Handling folder in the Customer account (CUS) application, contains details about the invoicing process. The options that determines the frequency of automated invoice generating are hold by the InvCons field.
The options are:
No - Generates the sales invoice as soon as the customer shipment advice (CSA) is registered.
Daily - Generates the sales invoices by a batch job on a daily basis, usually around midnight.
Weekly - Generates the sales invoices by a batch job on a weekly basis, usually during the weekend.
Monthly - Generates the sales invoices by a batch job once a month, usually on the last day of the month.
Exclude - Excludes the sales invoice to be generated automatically, causing it to be handled manually.
Group by - Sales invoices for one customer can be grouped by certain reference fields to match for instance the customers PO numbers (one invoice pr. YOURNO) if invoices are created on daily, weekly or monthly basis. The items on the sales invoices can also be sorted by reference number or part.
