  3. On the General FastTab, in the Accrual Type field, select the required option from the drop-down menu.

The created value entries for the selected trade plan are shown. Depending on the accrual type the value entries can be ‘standard’ or ‘expected’.

Divide trade plan value entries by net and gross weight

When sales invoices are posted, the system calculates and distributes trade plan value entries according to the weight of each lot.

For trade plans where the rate type is Amount per Unit and rate UoM matches the catch weight UoM, value entries are calculated and distributed according to the weight of each lot rather than its quantity. The system determines the value entry (Sales Amount (Actual)) for each lot in proportion to its weight relative to the total weight of all lots in the sales line.

Subsequently, the system posts the calculated sales amount for each lot as a percentage of line amount, ensuring alignment with the actual weight distribution of the items.

This process also applies when creating value entries for sales return orders and sales credit memos.

Note

For rate types not based on weight, value entries are distributed according to the quantity of each lot.
