Packing Slip Creation Impact on WIP

Yahoo Archive
1
That's correct. The behavior in 5.0 & earlier versions was to move
the cost out of WIP as soon as the packing slip was created. In
version 5.1, it doesn't do it until it is marked "shipped."

We would like to be able to pre-create packing slips (and not print them)
well in advance of actually shipping. This would greatly assist in creating
box labels with the PS # on them at the time we actually a boxing the items.
Then, when all packed up (maybe a few days later) print the PS and ship,
checking the "Ready to Invoice" box at that time.

What we have discoverd is that simply creating the packing slip record
closes the order (if shipped qty >= ordered) and creates a WIP COS entry
called shipped for the job.

Is there any way to enter packing slip info and NOT impact the order or job
until we say "yes, this is really now shipped"? I thought the "ready to
invoice" checkmark was for this purpose (as well as allowing invoicing). Is
there another flag or company setting somewhere else to move the WIP entry
creation from packing slip entry to invoicing? A couple of our customers
are requiring box labels with the packing slip number on them so we are in a
sort of catch-22 situation.

From what I've heard, creating the P/S no longer effects WIP on 5.1, until
it is marked 'Shipped'.

Sarah is correct. In 5.1, you can create the P/S, and print (or not print). It doesn't hit the GL, etc. until you click the "Shipped" button on it.

Can anyone tell me where Vantage hides the next check number for AP
checks? Seems like it should be in the BankAcct table, but I'm not seeing it.

Also, is there any way to reset it if it accidentally gets bumped up too
high? (AP person managed to get an extra zero on the end.)

-Thanks,

The AP Check Number is stored in CheckHed and the system takes the largest
number and continues from there. You will need to enter the correct number
until you have reached a number high enough to go past the number that was
used. To the best of my knowledge there is no where to edit the number at.
