Hello All,

 

I need help.

 

I have done a mass load of AP Invoices into IFS cloud and they are all in “PRELIMINARY” Status. From which screen can i perform a mass “Post Invoice

Best answer by Carole.B.K4U

Hi ID, for a future mass load of AP Invoices, you can set to “yes” the parameter called “Automatic Posting Irrespective of Company Settings” at External Supplier Invoice Parameters level:

Whatever the set up at Company level, the loaded AP invoices will get the PreliminaryPosted status at creation.

I hope this helps !

Carole.

Do a mass print and send them to the pdf logical printer. Then they should go to a posted status.

Thanks Kshaas, Thanks a million for your feedback

 

I used the External Supplier Invoice Assistant.

When i went to Manual Supplier Invoice i could not select all the invoices in the “Preliminary status to post.

 

However for AR if you go to the Manual Customer Invoices i was able to select all AR invoice and post. But the screen is different for Manual supplier invoice.

 

All these are in IFS cloud by the way.

 

Many Thanks

My fault...I missed that these were AP invoices. If you arent IFS hosted you may be able to do a mass update through the db.

Hi,

I know it is possible to set up IFS in order to get all external AP invoices created with PreliminaryPosted status, but once the invoices have been created with Preliminary status I do not know a way to mass Post them to get the PreliminaryPosted status. 

The only way I know is to use the Post invoice button from Manual Supplier Invoice page.

Regards,

Carole.

Thank you so much Carole. Your feedback is much appreciated. I have used the  Manual supplier Invoice screen to post a few line successfully, but my issue is i have over 300 AP invoice lines and will not have enough time to post individually at go live.

 

Thank you so much.

Hi ID, for a future mass load of AP Invoices, you can set to “yes” the parameter called “Automatic Posting Irrespective of Company Settings” at External Supplier Invoice Parameters level:

Whatever the set up at Company level, the loaded AP invoices will get the PreliminaryPosted status at creation.

I hope this helps !
