Invoicing before shipping in WMS

pa_tou

Hi,

How can we invoice before shipping ?

We are using WMS warehouses to ship goods. As soon as the picking is done, invoicing must be done .

How can we manage that as Navision does not handle invoicing without doing shipping?

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks

Prepayments - look them up in the Finance manual.

Does this handle an invoicing or Payment? In my case, I want to invoice goods then do later shipping .

Thanks

It creates a prepayment invoice.

Does your require related to proforma invoices or something?

Exactly. It relates to a proforma invoice . In fact, I will send to my customer a BOL and an invoice. All those documents are gone with the truck.
In fact i really invoice my client before any shipment is done.
Does the prepayment functionality does that? For me, it seems that it relates to a payment done by the customer.
Thanks

Typically, we create a bill of lading/proforma invoice that's based off of the sales order so it would look exactly like an invoice when it's posted.

The other solution we typically implement is if the customer uses E-Ship, you can create bill of lading based on open sales orders.
