Dear Experts,

Hi,

First, you must flag "manager serial numbers and batches" in the drop-ship warehouse. Supposing you have stock available on this warehouse, you have to right-click in "Quantity" > Batch / Serial Numbers at document line-level to select the batch in the AR Invoice.

If you don't have any stock there, the only way to increase your inventory in a drop-ship warehouse is using a GRPO to "receive" batch managed items, as stock transfer or good receipt cannot use drop-ship ones.

I hope it helps.

Thanks

Hello! I just tried an item-type invoice created directly to a "dropship" warehouse and this did not result in any inventory movement. Just setup a dropship warehouse (make the warehouse and check the "Drop-Ship" option).

You can disable the automatic procurement for dropship rows in the Document Settings in the Per Document tab for sales orders. But when made directly, the invoice does not prompt for the procurement wizard and makes no transaction.

So this is a good option,

Mike

Hi,

I don't know your current B1 version, but in 9.2, you can select serial and batch number for drop ship warehouse provided selected under General ->Inventory-->Warehouse.

Hi Vassilis,

There are three ways to create an invoice without inventory movement:

  1. A service type invoice. Obviously no batch selection.
  2. Only put none-inventory items in the invoice. Don't know if batches can be determined for none-inventory items. You could test this in a test database.

  3. Create a Delivery first, and use Copy to or Copy from to create the invoice. Allows for batches. However in that case you would still end up with inventory movements, but they would be written to their own Journal Entry.

Regards,

Johan
