Open orders are orders in various operations statuses, such as first follow up or shipped, but are incomplete in accounting.
⚠️ Alert!
If open orders are not routinely reviewed and addressed, there is a risk of ballooning pre-paid purchases, lingering costs, implications on commissions, and potential for outstanding billing.
💡 Tip!
Here is a list of common accounting statuses for open orders:
Open: No customer invoices processed.
Vouched: Customer invoice in ready state.
Partly-Vouched: Partially invoiced to customer.
Rec-Not-Vchd: Received not vouched. Ensure customer invoice is processed.
Vchd-Not-Rec: Vouched not received. Review the receiving journal.
