Post Work Order Work In Progress

This posting utility is only visible in the menu tree with the Work Order In Progress Billing (WIP) processing is activated in the Custom Function Parameters, which allows multiple interim invoice billings on the same Work Order before the WIP Work Order is closed and a final billing is done.

G/L posting for WIP Work Orders and also for the WIP W.O. Invoices are different from the standard where one W.O. produces one W.O. Invoice.

The WIP G/L Posting Accounts for "Work In Progress"(WIP), "Unbilled Labor" (WIPL) and "Unbilled Services" (WIPS) are defined in the Work Order Work in Progress window in the Default Accounts by currency.

When a W.O. detail is entered, a 'Work In Progress' record is written that needs to be posted.
The W.O. transactions are posted using this Post Work In Work Progress utility usually before the Daily Close 1: Invoice Edit is run.

Posting Control:
The Post Work Order Work In Progress program is designed to be run by one operator at a time per batch.
Locking will occur if another operator attempts to run the program at the same time, or if the first operator did not exit the posting program correctly.
A Posting Control Information warning will appear on the screen preventing the second operator from proceeding, and only operators with Security Role permission to reset the Post Work Order Work In Progress flag will have access to the RESET button that unlocks the program.
Whenever the posting control flag for Post Work Order Work In Progress is reset, a record is written to the Delete Log for the Function WOIP10.
