Posting Invoice before Receipt

idiot · 2009-10-09

I've got a request to prevent Posting of Invoice prior to Receipt of Items by checking the Posting Date.
Is there any scenario that an Invoice would be posted before Receipt?

If you still didn't find the answer - you need to enable "Receipt on Invoice" in Purchases & Payables Setup (table 312). This will post Receipt even if user posts only Invoice (in this case Receipt will be posted in background).

I still haven't got sample cases when Invoices would be posted before Receipts.
The posting of Invoice and Receipt needs to be 2 separate processes

Well, if the setting, which I mentioned, is not enabled, one can post invoice separately by creating the invoice and posting it.

Yes, but is there a case for Invoice Posting Date < Receipt Posting Date?
Maybe I should rephrase, should a customization that checks the Invoice Posting Date < Receipt Date be done?
What business process, operation, industry would be Posting Invoice Date < Receipt Date be the norm?
