Review journal entry for receipt transaction

This recipe demonstrates the journal entry review for receipt transactions, and discusses how to:

  • Post receipts

Getting ready

You should set up the processing options for the PO Receipt (P4312) program in order to set up the Journal entry summarization on the Process tab.

    How to do it...
  2. After you review the journal entries, you can post them to the general ledger by using the General Ledger Post.
  3. Report program (R09801).

How it works...

When you enter a formal receipt, the system creates journal entries. That is, it debits an inventory account if it is a stocked line, and otherwise debits the general ledger account and credits a received not vouchered account. The system retrieves the account numbers for which it should create journal entries from AAIs. A separate AAI table exists for inventory accounts and received not voucher accounts. The account number will be obtained based on the company, business unit, and general ledger category. The system will retrieve the receipt not vouchered account from AAI table 4320, and will obtain the tax related General Ledger integration information from AAI tables 4350 and 4355.

The standard cost for an item remains consistent unless you manually change it. If a variance exists between the standard cost and the price at which you purchase an item, the system creates journal entries to account for the variance. You specify variance accounts in AAIs.

There's more...

You can set up the Processing Option of P4312 in order the set up the Journal rule for receipts, and to specify whether you require detail journals or summarize journals.
