Hi. I am trying to figure out how to do a search that compares the Item Fullfillment transaction date to the Invoice Date to look for discrepancies. Would anyone know if this is possible?
k
Possible yes. Easy no.
Start with a saved search and join to item fulfillment and invoice that way... But expect major issues with row duplication/multiplication
a
That is what I was afraid of. So how does everyone verify that the costs and the invoice hit the same month?
Oh hey when I addded "Invoice Number" to my saves search it gave me the sales order number. Any idea why it does that?
k
I try not to be too sales pitchy here, but if you like, I can probably spin up a couple versions under a support agreement. This is likely just a few hours of work just between looking at things building them out, and reviewing them with you.
Unfortunately this one is just hard enough that it's over my do for free threshold.
Invoice number is probably just another way of saying document number if I'm guessing offhand. I'd have to look at it closer to know
a
I wouldnt mind paying for it. My biller thinks she may have invoiced some sales orders in a different month then the Item Fullfillment date and we have no way to find them. We are new and are really struggling with searches and NS's training was a joke.

Seems like Gregory has a suiteanswers article that might be useful for you
It has some limitations, like most NS articles, but it does seem to do exactly what you're looking for
Looks like Suiteanswers ID 81195

Thanks i will look at it!

Not sure if that image works.
It'll struggle with multiple fulfillments and multiple invoices - but otherwise should work.
i.e. 1 SO - Filled 2/3 times, invoiced 2/3 times etc.
So feel free to thank @Gregory Jones for that one! I suppose I could have searched in suite answers first haha.

The file link didnt work but I will look at the Suite Answer!

That should get you mostly there...criteria can be added as Formula (Numeric)
case when trunc({fulfillingtransaction.trandate},'MON') != trunc({billingtransaction.trandate},'MON') then 1 else 0 end
to find when fulfillments/invoices are not in the same month.

Dumb question - where would I type in that code/language? I do not see a place on searches I can free hand stuff
k
a formula numeric.

Thanks! This is why we need help lol

This one is a bit above most typical users - I normally find a IT guy/gal or someone who is ok with the idea of SQL to teach this kind of stuff to at clients.

I'm pretty sure everyone that has ever used NetSuite has been in the same boat.
