Question on Sales Line - Line Amount column

ALopez2710

The Line Amount Excl. Tax and the Qty. to Ship colmuns in a Sales Line is calculated/populated as soon as the Quantity is entered when creating a new sales line, this makes sense. However, when an item is short-shipped and the Qty. to Ship is less than the Quantity, the Line Amount $ does not re-calculate per the shipping quantity.

Is this std. NAV? If so, why would that be? To me it would make sense to re-calculate based on the quantites being shipped.

Are you talking about the Outstanding Amount field?

It's called the Line Amount, it is basically the column that has the extended line amount (qty * unit price).

So try to change Quantity or Unit Price and see if the value changes. I think you are just looking at the wrong field.

Hi Lopez
Well this looks standard feature & the reason it is the way it is may be because it always shows the line amount for your sales order & not for your pending quantity in sales order. What you can do is use STATISTICS (F9) and see in tab INVOICE or SHIPPING there it will show the amount refering to your remaining quantity which is left after your short shipment.
