How is everyone handling shortages and price discrepancies? We would like to start creating chargebacks in PO31 for shortages and working with AP for price discrepancies using MA64. Does the reason code for the short pay/chargeback appear on the check remittance? If not, how do you let the vendor know why you are short paying an invoice?

Thank you,
Andrea

At my previous employer, we used a code for Short Ship Credit (SSCR) in po31. It was primarily used for our main distributor and auto receiving. If we found an item was shorted, we only had to do the po31 transaction and report it to the vendor for credit. We'd reorder as necessary. This way the invoice was not held up and the credit would process. Reordering on a new PO kept the records cleaner 99% of the time (occasionally we'd have a Friday afternoon cutoff and need product ASAP, so they'd reuse the same po and over receive).
