The purpose of the Serial Costing utility is to cross-reference your POs with the supplier invoices. Serial Costing enables you to import and cost multiple purchase orders and invoices from multiple suppliers at the same time, reducing the manual work required to cost individual line items for each invoice.
Importing of PO and invoice data can be done manually by searching and importing your POs from EPASS or importing a supplier invoice data file (either an Excel file or an EDI file in CSV format). You can also automate the process by scheduling an import of a supplier invoice data file.
Once the data is imported, either manually or automatically, you need to cost it.
