Despatch Types

 

Stock can be charged or transferred to different accounts by selecting the appropriate Despatch Type. A default despatch type can be set. Refer to Sales/Despatch Options.

 

Customer Despatch

This is despatching goods to a customer. The goods are taken out of stock but are not charged to the customer. You invoice a despatch by creating a sales invoice and then selecting the despatches to invoice. Multiple despatches can be charged on one invoice. The Despatches Inquiry screen lists the despatches to be invoiced. The Despatch GL Control Account on the Sales/Despatch Options screen is used as the control account.

 

The despatch process updates stock, cost of sales and sales. Pricing of lines must occur in the Despatch screen prior to the despatch being invoiced. In the sales invoice screen the despatch lines can be deleted but prices and quantities cannot be changed. Note when one despatch sales line is deleted all despatch sales lines must be deleted. This enables the despatch to be uninvoiced.

Default Loc.

 

Internal

This allows goods to be taken from stock and charged direct to a general ledger account. This option can be used to transfer non inventory items from one location to another. Note that the appropriate divisional general ledger code has to be entered to reflect the correct account to charge.

Default Loc.

 

Job Transfer

This allows inventory items (materials) to be taken from stock and charged to a job. Non inventory items, such as labour, can also be charged to the job. If the job has been assigned an employee, the employee code will appear in the Sales Rep field. The Location assigned to the employee entered as the Sales Rep becomes the Loc from which the items are taken.

Stock Transfer

This allows inventory to be transferred from one stock location to another. The location entered in the To: field is the location the entered items will be transferred to. The Location assigned to the employee entered in the Sales Rep field becomes the Loc from which the items are transferred from. This location can be changed at the line level. Non inventory items cannot be selected.
