Feature - Invoice Posted For Customer Event

Release Date: 4/24/2024

Version: 8.5 & Up

Background

This is a follow-up feature to a similar event, Invoiced Line Item Posted Event. 

Feature

A new event has been developed that will trigger after a customer's invoice is posted. This means that a customer's invoice has been posted via Customer Order Processing > Processing > Post Invoices. The event is called "POSTINVC" (Invoice Posted For Customer) and is found in ARCUSFIL files in Customer File.

When this event is active for a specified customer, a notification will be sent to anyone subscribed to the event if that customer's invoice is posted.

Setup

To set up this event, you need to make it active for a customer. Go to Accounts Receivable > Maintenance > Customer File.

Bring up an item with Change and click the lightning bolt icon.

In the Event Request window, press F5 to add a new event via Event File Search. Search for the event with the following fields: "Program: CP0305, Type: POSTINVC, Detail ARCUSFIL, Description: Invoice Posted For Customer." Press Enter.

Proceed to select what kind of features, messages, or filters the event should have. When you are done, click Save.

You now have an event associated with this customer. Whenever you use Post Invoices in COP and an invoice for this customer is posted, the event will trigger and notify people accordingly.
