Fabrications normally cannot be returned to a supplier - nor sold to another customer - hence they normally require payment before a supplier gets the order.
Fabrication Orders ordered by the franchisor on behalf of a franchisee will have their mirrored intercompany debtor/creditor invoices linked to the Fabrication Order and line linked to the Project Order line.
- The intercompany invoices will be created when the Fabrication order is despatched.
- The descriptions will show the Fabrication Order and the Project Order codes.
- When a Fabrication Order is despatched its order line will be marked as Delivered.
Fabrications sent by a Franchisee to a supplier directly do not require Confimation

When mirroring a journal for trade by loan entities the system retain the journal line links, even if the linked order is in a different ledger. When displaying list of journals linked to an order in a franchisee only list those journals in the franchisee's ledger. When displaying journals linked to a project order include journals that have a link from journal line to order line (fabrication order debtor/creditor invoices). If opening a purchase order from a journal link or a journal line link and the purchase order is in a different ledger then show it in the minimal 'Drop ship PO Details' form (no pricing visible) |
