Unposted Inventory Transactions

Unposted inventory transactions are created during the work order close process. Normally when the date of an automatic Issue transaction based on work order completion date falls into a past period. These are created as unposted inventory transactions to allow you to verify the transaction date for both the Inventory ledger and any associated journal entries. You need to post these transactions to complete your end of month inventory processes, process the inventory valuation and generate physical count batches.

1. Click the Unposted Inventory Transactions link from the Main Menu. The Unposted Inventory Transactions screen opens.
2. Use Ctrl+Click, Shift+Click or click and drag to select all the transactions.
3. Right-click and select Tools -> Post. The Unposted Inventory Transactions Post Summary screen displays when the post process is complete. If the transaction failed to post, the reason displays in the Reason column.

If you receive a message that the transaction is not posted because it does not have a valid fiscal period or year, you need to update the transaction date on the items:

1. Select the items which did not post from the Unposted Inventory Transactions screen. Use Ctrl+Click, Shift+Click or click and drag to select all the items.
2. Right-click and select Edit Multiple. The Edit Multiple Unposted Inventory Transactions screen opens.
3. Check the Date check box.
4. Enter a date within the current or next fiscal period into the date field.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat the post process.
