Hi, 

Is there a way to adjust the delivery date of the postings of goods which you deliver through a shipment? 

For example: goods are delivered on the 10th of december in 2020 in reality, but in IFS the goods are delivered through the shipment on 19 januari 2021. 

The inventory transaction which IFS automatically generates when delivering the goods, has an applied date of 19 januari 2021. So IFS considers the goods between the inventory receipt date and the shipment date as inventory. 

Because of the year-end closing, I aggregated the inventory transactions in the menu Inventory Value per Period. My IFS inventory value is not in line with the real value on 31-12-2020 because of transactions in the example above. 

I know you can alter the receipt date of goods, with the result that the postings are posted in the right period. But is there a similair way to do this with delivering goods through a shipment? 

 

Kind regards, 

Simon

Hi Simon,

 

Does changing the Applied Date of the shipment transaction by “Modify Date Applied...” not resolve your problem ?

Hi @ThushAsanka 

Thanks for your reply. That does resolve the problem. But is there no alternative? In your solution you change the Applied Date after the transaction is created. But is there also a possibility to change it beforehand? 

Kind regards,

Simon

Hi @BZNSIMON ,

 

There is no way to change it before hand. Only way is to change the Date Applied after the transaction has been created. If Delivery confirmation has been set to mandatory (delivery confirmation is used), we can update the Date SOGS Posted from Update Delivery Confirmation Lines window, but it is also after the transaction has been posted, and also it does not change the applied date of the inventory transaction, need to manually change it.

 

Thanks,
