Hello - I am on IFS10, update 13.  I am trying to mark an instant invoice as an advance invoice.  I have accessed the advance invoice reference box via the RMB on the general tab of the instant invoice.  What is this screen supposed to do?  It is asking for an invoice series ID, invoice no and amortized amount.  I can select series ID AD with the list of values.  The other two fields do not have anything in the list of values.  I do have an invoice number series set for series ID AD.  It seems like I missed some setup data somewhere.  I would appreciate an information on setup and creation of the advance invoice.Thanks for your time.

Is there a report that can be used to compare supplier invoice due date versus the actual pay date (to measure invoices paid late)?

Hi Everyone,  I have an issue on Aurena (21R1) concerning the customer offset proposal. I want to do a partial matching concerning an invoice and a payment on account (CUPOA) For example my invoice = 1000 and my payment = 500  When i try to use the path menu “customer offset  proposals” then “new proposal” even if i used “manual” (i can’t mentionned an allowed difference) or the other (i can mentionned an allowed difference but i can’t validate my offset → I have the pop-up but i can’t finalize it)   I saw on the community that we have to tick the box “allow write-off for partial payment” in company path menu :   Even if this setting nothing ha

We are having trouble with the background job that posts the journals. The error received shows:‘User group XXX is not connected to voucher type  with function group L for accounting year 2022 in Company XXX’What is strange, is the fact there is a SPACE after the ‘voucher type’. I would normally expect to have a missing entry in the user group for that specific voucher type. However, as there is no voucher type showing i dont know what is missing!Any ideas

Hello, when splitting up an object and then rolling back the splitting transaction.The initial original object and its values are correct.The created split object however is in status Registered and I’m not able to delete it, as the object was already used in the GL.What should be handling with those objects? Best way would be the possibility to change the status to “Scrapped” / “Deactivated” or whatsoelse, but right now it’s just existing in “Registered” without any doable function to properly correct it.  Kind regardsAlex

Hello all,At our company we are interested in using RMB for E-mail invoice. We have realized that we have a “conflict of interest” with this function. We have found the F1 help helpful, and we understand how it works. The problem is following: Note; if entered here, value will be valid for all external communication, e.g. order confirmation and delivery note. IFS only allow for one Document address, i.e. no separate invoice address!The F1 help shows that below hierarchy is used:Customer contact will be retrieved according to the below hierarchy.1. Look at the Customer/Address/Order Info tab for the document address.2. If it is empty, take the primary contact for the customer address defined on the Customer/Contact tab.3. If that is empty, take the primary contact for the cus

.  I need to move the open supplier invoices from one supplier to a different supplier as a result of an acquisition.  I would like to use the function “Repost Supplier Ledger Item to Other Identity”, however, that option is not available in the context menu after I inquire on the supplier invoices to repost.I have checked all the prerequisites listed in the help document and have provided screen shots of each item below. I also have worked with my IT department to see if there is any security that I may be missing – of which nothing seems to be missing. I have the same functionality on the Customer side, and that is working correctly. In the attached word document I have included all the screen shots showing the set up and the reposting screen. I’m using Enterprise explorer APPS 10 update 13. Below is the screen shot of what I see when I go into Repost supplier ledger item.

Hi, What is the best method to export supplier checks via a file to a 3rd party.

Topic was raised on behalf of Case ID  G2324889 The items receive on the FOC (free of charge)  basis in shipments need to be set off from the GL 1361010 - Trade Advances - Import (PP37)- Pre paid Import Advances.

Hi everyone! I would like to know how are you implementing the cash box functionality in your companies.Currently, our cashier is recording the petty cash received from employees.But we also have other petty cash at site that is not going thru our cashier. Can we ask those employees to record their petty cash in the Cash Box screen? Then once finance received those supporting documents, we can process the same?This will eliminate the finance function to record those petty cash that those employees already encoded in Excel. What can be the complications in this process? like control, mis-management, etc.Or are there any other alternative process that you can recommend? Many thanks in advance!Jaybee
