During the evening of Thursday, August 29 , enhancements will be made to the internal order billing process to allow for negative invoice line amounts. Currently, refunds/credits to customers can only be accomplished using a cost center journal. Negative invoicing will replace cost center journals as the standard practice for issuing refunds/credits to customers.

Please note that due to a Workday constraint, the negative invoices will only get picked up for settlement once there is an overall positive total invoice amount for that internal supplier ID. Service line invoices will have to be refunded with negative service lines. Goods lines will have to be refunded by entering a negative quantity and the corresponding unit price to prevent PO liquidation issues. These updates will be reflected on the internal order billing job aid (login required) and will be discussed in the September Finance Office hours.

Below are details about recent and upcoming report changes.

"Find Supplier Invoice Summary - OSU" Report

The "Find Supplier Invoice Summary – OSU" report has been enhanced with two additional fields in the output of the report. The field names are "Invoice Reference ID" and "Supplier Reference ID."

Coming Soon: "Accounting Adjustment Status - OSU"

A new report will soon be released to combine the existing reports "Find Accounting Adjustments" and "Find Accounting Adjustment Lines for Organization" into a single report titled "Accounting Adjustment Status - OSU." The new report will include output from both of the existing reports as well additional columns to help end users identify where in the business process the transaction is awaiting action.

With the release of the new report, the old reports will be retired effective Friday, September 27 . If you have saved filters on these reports, please be sure to save those fields on the new report.
