Invoice Update OE4100

The invoice update program will update the general ledger for all invoices created and journalized. The program also updates the sales detail file, sales history file, shipping file, customer file, state/province file, sales gratis file. If the System has been set up to update an external Account Receivable module ('External Accounts Receivable' set in System Flags Maintenance) an ASCII file will be created (see end of document for detailed file layout) otherwise an Account Receivable master file is created. Note. Only customers that have an update external Account Receivable flag set in the customer master maintenance will be produced into this file. When an ASCII file is created, a report (oe4102) is also created that lists information from the ASCII file. The 'Oracle Account Receivable Interface Report' displays the following information: Invoice No, Invoice Date, Customer Bill To No, Salesperson No, Invoice Amount.

It has an option to delete cancelled orders up to the entered date and will delete order details and order headers if there is no back-ordered amount. The orders that have not been journalized in order entry will not be affected.

If the oe autopost flag in system flag maintenance (gb2800) is set to "X", the program will update the general ledger transaction file.

Posting will debit accounts receivable and cost of goods sold (material, labour, overhead) and credit sales and regular inventory cost general ledger accounts based upon the reason code.  Invoices that originate from the Repair and Service module (Repair Invoice Update RS0500) that include chargeable labour/time will post the revenue generated from the labour to the Labour Revenue account which is maintained in the Reason Code Maintenance (GB4300). Note: See System Flags (GB2800) Overlay Sales / Cost Of Good Sold Branch With Order Branch field help for cost of goods sold, sales and labour revenue posting for additional information.

For prepayments: A journal is printed for ALL prepayment methods and the prepayments are updated and included in the Invoice Update journal.  A credit to the accounts receivable account will be made with an offsetting debit entry to the account from the payment method file (GB5200).  Please check Payment Method Maintenance (Gb5200) for more information on prepayment general ledger postings.
