The use of the AutoInvoice FBDI is helpful for Accounts Receivable personnel that want to import invoices in mass quantities and/or want the system to validate the data they are importing. One key thing to remember in regards to the FBDI tool is that the data won’t be imported to the desired subledger unless all data is accurate and can sync with the instance. The AutoInvoice FBDI is one of the more detailed files to use for invoice importing and the checks that are made during the import process ensure the data is error-free, which is why it might be the most commonly used FBDI tool. There are two tabs that require data entry: one for the line distributions and one for the header distributions, while the sales credits tab does not require anything, but is available . Both are equally important, and the header tab requires the user to capture the General Ledger segment details.
Basically, once the user has figured out the best way to set up the data in a template format for future use, all future import processes will be a breeze. The only step needing to be done after importing is posting to the General Ledger. Please refer to my previous post called ‘FBDI: Helpful Tips’ to ensure successful importing/uploading of files.
