Partial orders during upgradation

company

Hi,

Iam doing upgradation from 2.0 to 3.7B and again from 3.7B to 6Sp1. There are several Sales and Purchase orders which are partially shipped, received or invoiced. My client opposed to post all orders completely during upgradation.

I did test upgradation to 6sp1 without posting partial orders. So far I did not faced any error while working with existing or new sales & purchase orders.

What could be the reason for posting partial orders completely during upgradation? (My client is not using sales tax and reservation functionality in 2.0)

Thanks.

Because you do not have the invoices?

I think that standard way is:

Quantity, which is shipped/received and invoiced, subtract from the quantity
Quantity, which is only shipped, ship in the new system (do not forget to remove this quantity from initial inventory posting)
Quantity, which is not shipped nor invoiced, let as it is.

It means:

line with Quantity=10, Shipped 5, invoiced =3 would be
Quantity = 7, Shipped 5 (sipped in new system), invoiced=0

line with Quantity=10, Shipped 5, invoiced =5 would be
Quantity = 5, Shipped 0, invoiced=0

etc.

The upgrade toolkit specifically says you should invoice all shipped and received orders. I think it may have something to do with costing.

I did a couple of upgrades without having to invoice received orders and didn't run into any problems.
