Proposed improvements to Accruals and Prepayments functionality


Stock Received Not Invoiced (SRNI or more commonly known in UK as GRNI)

  • Accrue the value based on the price on the PO line rather than the Item unit cost - PO price is more accurate, and if unit cost not set no accrual happens.
  • Add standard report with listing and total - saves the accounts department a job each month end
  • Add synonyms SRNI and GRNI to tell me search


Expenses Received Not Invoiced (ERNI) OR 'non-item PO Accruals'

  • Add a report to calculate non-Item lines (G/L Account) balance received not invoiced - this is often a manual process for accounts departments each month end.


General Accruals

  • Commonly still done in a spreadsheet each month end, then journaled. Can be achieved with edit in excel fairly easily, but as it is ubiquitous, could it not be a matrix page to allow the user to input their release amounts each month
  • Journal created based on the balance sheet view in the above matrix page, snapshot at a point in time
  • Add a standard Report from matrix page showing balance at month end date


General Prepayments

  • Commonly still done in excel and journaled as above
  • Add balance sheet focussed matrix page to allow user to create entries, track balances and input their release amounts each month
  • Journals auto-created based on the latest snapshot at a point in time

Also - ERNI - not just a report, but auto-output a 1M reversing journal at the month end date - Crediting ERNI account (setup) and Dr accounts per the PO(should also work on the inverse for credit memos)
