Best way to post labour and other costs to an SD order

[former_member535511]

Being a small service company, we don't have the resources to use the CS module, so we wondered could we simplify the process by doing the following.

1. Create an SD order

2. Post Purchase Invoices to it

3. Post stock issues to it.

4. Post actual labour hours and the costs to it (maybe though the CATS)?

The sales value and the sum of the costs make up the margin.

We want something that is easy to use that 1 accounting person can maintain.

I know this sounds very basic but is it possible?

I am open to any ideas.

many thanks

Hi Richard,

Yes, it is possible to have  the labour and material shipping haoenning in a single sales order. Please follow the below approach for the same:

Have two different materials -

MATERIAL 1: One - A Dummy material (No Stock) - Item Category with Billing Relevance as "I" and the item category will not have delivery possible. - Perform your Milestone Billing with this material. The Unit of Measure should be HRS.

MATERIAL 2: Physical product (With Stock) - Item Category with Billing Relevance as "A" and the item category will have delivery possible. - Actual Delivery of your material

Yes you can go for order related billing where you treat labour cost as one material code and accordingly, have different condition types for each.  Wherever, physical material movement is there, it can be considered as delivery related billing.
