To generate GL Entry while doing Purchase receipt

hksharmaa

Hi All...

My Client had an requirement....He wants that while making a Purchase Receipt from a Purchase order the system should generate a automatic G/L Entry..The Two G/L Account have been defined in Purchase setup....DEbiting One G/L and Crediting Other with amount (Qty. To Receive * Direct Unit Cost) of the Purchase Order.....

Also..when i Book Purchase Invoice of that Purchase Receipt it should also pass an Reverse Entry that was made while booking the Purchase Receipt of the Same amount....Please give some suggetsions...

I think that you are looking for the Expected inventory cost should post interim G/L accounts when you receive the material.

To achieve the expected results you have to place the checkmark in the Expected Cost posting field in the Inventory Setup. When you book the invoice system will reverse those entries.

Never create a G/L Entry on your own!
Let the posting routines create the G/L entries.

Depending on you needs you could insert a line into the order before posting it, or create journal lines and post them.

Salut!

The question has been answered. You need to take the advise of a functional consultant if working for a partner else contact your partner for training and setup.

This is sort of Expected Cost Posting...But my Partner do not want to use the base functionality..
So i have to do this....How can i automatically create G/L Journal Lines if i don't want to direct insert into G/L Entry Table with the Purchase Receipt??

Is it possible to create extra Gen. Journal Lines while posting an Journal Entry??IF Yes then could anyone tell how??

Thanks in advance....

If you do not want to Post the values to G/L entry , then why you want to create the G/L journal Lines.
You need to make the user understand the concept/logic of NAV postings.

Just deactivate the Automatic Cost Posting.
