Understanding End Of Day Processing

End of day processing is the last step in sales order processing and consists of updating, verifying, and posting daily sales information. This is perhaps the most important step in the sales order processing cycle because the system updates the records in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Sales Order Management system and the records in the other systems with which it interacts, such as the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management systems.

You perform end of day processing each day to maintain the most accurate sales information. After you run the program, you can review and post sales information, and print reports.

When you perform end of day processing, the system provides:

• Accounts receivable transactions.

• General ledger entries for inventory, cost of goods sold (COGS), revenue, and accounts receivable.

• Inventory balances for on-hand quantities.

• Daily activity reports.

• Interim sales reports.

If you do not update the sales records on a daily basis, this information can be inaccurate:

• Inventory balances for on-hand quantities.

• Amounts posted to the sales, inventory, COGS, tax, and freight accounts.

• Amounts posted to the accounts receivable ledger.

• Reports for interim sales.

To perform end of day processing:

1. Update customer sales.

2. Review customer sales update reports.

3. Refresh inventory commitments. (optional)

4. Repost orders.

5. Review and approve journal entry batches.

6. Post batches of journal entries.

7. Purge data.
