I have the following problem when tryint to post a sales invoice.
I generate an invoice from Job Planning Lines of a contract. All lines a type “Contract” and are Products. From Jobs/View Job Planning Lines I excute the “Create sales invoice” action. After that, a new invoice is created and all “contract” lines are marked as transferred and the Invoice No. is correctly filled.
When I open the Invoice and are trying to post it, I get following message:
“You should consume Item in Job before you post sales invoice”
As the message says: you have to consume before invoicing.
You consume items via Jobs → “Job Journals”. What is done here is that a negative adjustment is made on the item and “kind of” a positive adjustment on the job. You actually move stock from inventory to job.
You can never invoice more from a job than you have consumed.
finally I changed all Job Planning Lines from “Contract” to “Schedule and Contract”. That allows me to post product usage and later post the sales invoice!
