POST INVENTORY JOURNAL

Use this screen to print and post eligible inventory transactions to the General Ledger. You can print the inventory journal to review before posting, or print and post as one process. You can select the fiscal year, period, and subperiod(s) to be posted.

You can bill units from inventory issues by cost, units, or account, depending on the radio button that is selected in the Bill Inventory Issues As group box in the Other Info subtask of the Project Billing Info screen (in Costpoint Billing). The radio button that is selected determines how records will be inserted in the OPEN_BILLING_DETL table during the Post Inventory Journal process. If you selected the Account radio button, some issues can be billed as units and others as cost under the same project, depending on the account function code (Units, Non-Labor, or Labor) associated with the inventory transaction line's charge to project and account.

You can run this process at any time. However, you must post the Inventory Journal before closing an accounting period.
