Wow, I hope they stop doing that immediately.

You should write a quick and dirty macro that makes one invoice for each reciept, then delete the batch that will get created in AP.

Alittle background:

At our company the receiver in the warehouse receives the material and creates the receipt. The receipts are then sent to the AP office where the AP clerk matches the invoice to the receipt and enters it into AP directly. We've been doing this for about 3 years now.

I asked the controller why they do it this way. He thought that if you invoice it though PO you have to do it at the time of receipt and didn’t want the receiver creating invoices (I told him that is not the case you can invoice at anytime). He also thought there is no way to edit the invoice to add shipping and miscellaneous charges (I told him that is not the case). I think this process was a carry over from their Plus days.

With that being said now I have 3 years of uncompleted receipts that cause over 50000 data integrity errors because a lot of them are in locked periods. I know I can just ignore these errors but I was just wondering if there is a simple way to get rid of them. Can I just change the status in database? I should have included some of this information in my original post. Better late then never I guess.

Why would you want to do that?

Hello,

Is it possible to complete a receipt in P/O without invoicing it?

Thanks
