Creating pack slip invoices – An overview

Activity Overview

The system generates a unique invoice number if you have not opted for the “Manual” numbering type. You can enter the payment information and the item information details for the invoice.

While entering the item details, you can enter the price list code from which the unit price of the item must be retrieved. If you do not enter the code the “Pricing Engine” is activated and the unit price is retrieved. The unit price retrieved by the price engine cannot be modified but the unit price that is retrieved by the price list code can be modified. The unit price can be modified if the function default “Allow Price Change” has been set to “Yes”.

If you want to make some more modifications to the invoice you can save the invoice in the “Draft” status. An invoice in this status cannot be authorized. The status of a newly created pack slip invoice is updated as “Fresh”. This invoice can be authorized.

This page also allows you to authorize a pack slip invoice immediately after creation. The status of the invoice after authorization is updated as “Authorized”. This invoice cannot be modified.

The payment schedule is also generated based on the pay term that has been set.
