Manage posted document trade lines
When creating an invoice or credit memo, you can add an invoice line manually or use the Get Shipment Lines or Get Receipt Lines action. In that case, the document trade lines are copied from the order to the invoice or credit memo. When posting the invoice, the available document trade lines are posted as well.
After posting document trade lines with a price rule, the system creates value entries on the Trade Price Rule Entries page. For more information, see Trade price value entries.
After posting document trade lines with an accrual type and lines added from a shipment/receipt, a trade cost order is created and directly posted in the background. For more information about the trade cost order, see Trade Cost Order. After posting the trade cost order, value entries are created on the Value Entries page. Depending on the accrual type, this is a value entry with the Trade Cost Posting Type field set to Empty or Expected. For the value entries with the Trade Cost Posting Type field set to Expected, after posting the actual cost or revenue, the entries will be reversed and new entries will be created with the actual cost or revenue.
Create and post the trade cost order manually
The following instructions outline the process for creating and posting the trade cost order manually for the posted document trade lines within a sales invoice. These steps can be applied similarly to other sales and purchase documents.
- Select the Search icon
, enter Posted Sales Invoices, and then choose the related link.
The Posted Sales Invoices page opens. - Select the required No. to open the Posted Sales Invoice page.

The Posted Sales Document Trade Lines page opens.

While posting an invoice or credit memo, it is possible for an error to occur when generating the cost order in the background. However, this error will not prevent the system from proceeding with the posting of the invoice or credit memo. Once the error is resolved or the necessary setup is configured, you can create and post the trade cost order through the posted sales invoice or sales credit memo.
- On the action bar, select Post Trade Cost Order.
It creates and posts the trade cost order for the selected document trade line only if the error has been resolved, or the necessary setup has been configured for the specific line.
