Sales Order Bypass Shipment 25.1 Functionality - Accounting

Hello, we are testing the new Bypass Shipment Functionality. We have just gotten to the stage where we queue the SO detail to “Ready to Close” - From there, i can see we make a GL entry for the cost of the SO line. Is that expected? If I could get in contact with someone who knows the GLs for this new Bypass Shipment functionality, that would be most appreciated. Thanks.

That is correct. We write GL entries on the cost side upon Ready to Close using the following GL Mapping Rules:

  1. Inventory - for crediting
  2. Service Order WIP - for debiting

The cost is credited usually to an inventory account, the corresponding debit is usually to a clearing account.

Upon invoicing, the entry in the cleaning account is reversed and COGS is recorded. In your case, I believe the invoicing happens from the repair order.

Awesome, thanks for that info.

Another Q - How would we back-out/Void that transaction? Would we cancel the SO line that is at Ready to close? It doesn’t appear we can delete it from the UI on our side.

You should be able to use the Reopen Sales Order form action or change the workflow on the detail to reopen the detail. That will reverse the transaction.
