Modifying Invoice Date and GL Date for AR Invoices to future period
Background on issue:
We have Intercompany Dropship Process implemented between our 2 Operating units.
TNV - Selling OU
TNC - Shipping OU
Some TNV customers require the actual commercial invoice to be sent to them prior to shipment from TNC due to either:
a. Prepayment – goods will not be sent to customer until payment received by TNV
b. Legalisations – goods cannot enter some countries without full legal invoice arriving with shipment
c. Tax and duties – need to be paid in advance of shipment
In our current process, we ship confirm the dropship sales orders and generate the Intercompany AR and customer Invoices in the system. Then we send out the actual customer Invoices to the customers for the above mentioned reasons. We do not physically ship the actual shipment until we get the customers go ahead. So, sometimes we have to hold the shipment in our warehouse for months.
