Posting Shipments from Service Orders

After specifying the details of a service, you can adjust and post the quantities of items used, time spent, and costs incurred. As a result, the program makes the necessary changes to reflect the new state of your inventory and current status of the specific order processing.

To Post Shipments from Service Orders:

  1. Open the Service Order window.

  2. Press F5 to open the Service Order List window, select the service order you want to post and then click OK.

  3. In the window for the selected service order, click Order, Service Lines.

  4. In the Service Lines window, find the required entries and specify the quantity to be posted in the Qty. to Ship field.

    Note

    The quantity to ship value depends on whether you want to post shipment fully or partially. If you choose to ship fully, the value in the Qty. to Ship field must be equal to the value in the Quantity field. When you post a partial shipment, you must specify the quantity you want to ship initially. If you have already shipped part of the service on the order, make a note of the value in the Quantity Shipped field. The maximum quantity you can enter in the Quantity to Ship field is the number of units that have not yet been shipped.

  5. Click Posting, Post. In the window that appears, select Ship.

The program creates the relevant ledger entries (in the warranty ledger, item ledger, service ledger, or G/L) in the database. The program also produces the posted service shipment document and updates the relevant fields on the service lines of the service order.
