Auto release of Invoicing plan item when milestone actual date is entered

Former Member

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone can help me on this. I have configured the system to automatically release an invoicing plan in a PO once the milestone attached to that invoicing plan is confirmed in the project by entering the actual date. For some reason though, when trying to enter the invoice for this item in MIRO, the amount from the invoicing plan is not copied. The amount only gets copied if you enter the PO in change mode after confirmation of milestone, display the invoice plan for each item then save before exitting. It is only after this that the block on the item is removed. Is this supposed to be so? I would have thought immediately after confirmation of milestone by indication of actual date, the block on the invoicing plan will be immediately be removed so the invoice can immediately copy the amounts from the PO? Any ideas how to achieve this? (GR is not a part of the process).

Thanks for the response. I have gone through the document and my settings are in order. I am using the partial invoice plan but I do not want invoices created automatically but rather manually so that particular function is not being used. I expect that milestone confirmation would act like a regular GR confirmation and as such release the item for payment automatically eliminating the need to change the PO, since no particular step is taken when changing the PO except going through each item and then saving. I think something is missing, because the step shouldn't be necessary.
