Posting Service Lines

If you have to work on a service order for a considerable time without posting it, you may want to post some of the service lines linked to it as a way of keeping, for example, your inventory updated. You can post by specifying the relevant quantities on the line(s) to be posted. You may choose to post the lines one by one or selecting several lines at a time.

To Post Service Lines:

  1. Open the Service Order window.

  2. Browse to the relevant service order and click Order, Service Lines. The Service Lines window appears.

  3. On the line(s) you are going to post, fill in the Qty. to Ship, Qty. to Invoice, and/or Qty. to Consume fields, depending on the way you are going to post the line(s).

  4. Select the line(s) you want to post and click Posting, Post. A window will appear in which you have to select one of the following options:

    Ship

    The program posts shipment of the items, resource hours or costs on the line. It creates a posted service shipment document along with the relevant ledger entries.

    Invoice

    The program invoices the items, resources or costs that have already been shipped. It creates a posted invoice document along with the corresponding ledger entries.

    Ship and Invoice

    The program invoices and ships the items, resources or costs on the line(s). It creates a posted service shipment and a posted service invoice.

    Ship and Consume

     

    The program posts shipment and consumption on the order. It updates the relevant quantities on the current service line of the order and service shipment document created for the line previously.

It is possible to post consumption only if there is some shipped and not invoiced and not consumed quantity on the line.
