For example if Booking NL10890 is tied to Prepayment NL1450, The quantity booked in the NL10890 document will be ignored EVEN IF the Quantities between the booking and the prepayment do not match. The assumption is, if a customer only prepays part of a booking, that booking will be modified by the user so that one booking will be for the part prepaid, and another booking would be created for the part of the booking that was not prepaid. The prepaid booking will be linked to the prepay, so the inventory will be positioned as prepaid.

COA Report
The following describes the Certificate of Analysis report that can be emailed or printed.
- The system will print all the Analysis ID's that have a result entered. If no result has been entered, then the Analysis ID will not print.
- If a customer is not setup to print the specification, then the "Specification Max and Min" will not be displayed.
- The calculation to determine if a COA is out of spec is as follows:
- Basic Rule - In order to pass, the COA results must fall within the range of all specifications from the Customer Item Specification (or Item Specification if no Customer Item Specification). The following further explains this rule
- System will assume that if a Customer Item Specification and an Item Specification are not entered, the COA passes.
- If a COA result is entered, but it is not in the customer item specification (or item specification) it will be ignored for pass/fail purposes.
- System will follow the hierarchy of looking at the Customer Item Specification first, then the Item Specification. If both exist, the COA need only pass the Customer Item specification. That is, the Customer Item Specification overrules the Item specification, they are not combined.
- If customer or customer item specification calls for an analysis that has not been entered, the COA will fail.
- Pass/Fail Rules:
- If the Customer Item Specification exists, then all COA results must:
- Be entered, a specification where a test result is not entered in COA entry is assumed to fail.
- Be between the Min and Max values of the Customer Item Specification.
- Pass Or Fail, the Item Specification will not be checked if a Customer Item Specification exists.
- If the Customer Item Specification does not exit, then check for Item Specification:
- If an Item Specification does not exists, then pass.
- If an Item Specification does exists then all COA results must:
- Be entered, a specification where a test result is not entered in COA entry is assumed to fail.
- Be between the Min and Max values of the Item Specification.
- If the Customer Item Specification exists, then all COA results must:
- Basic Rule - In order to pass, the COA results must fall within the range of all specifications from the Customer Item Specification (or Item Specification if no Customer Item Specification). The following further explains this rule

Chapter 11:PostingD2HML|C1H Manual
Posting
This chapter contains information on how to post activity. Posting within CINCH makes the transactions you've entered part of your company's permanent records. Until they are posted, transactions can be changed or deleted. Once they have been posted, they cannot be changed in any way, though the user can enter transactions to correct errors.
CINCH uses three levels of posting:
Transaction-level Posting – This type of posting (sometimes called "real-time" posting) allows the user to enter and post transactions without ever having to create a batch. Sales and inventory information will be up to date when posting using this method, because transactions are posted or deleted immediately.
Transaction-level posting is optional and can be selected in the Extensions Setup window for some modules and Microsoft Dynamics GP's Posting Setup window for others. If the system has been set up to allow transaction-level posting, the user will be able to enter and post transactions directly. If the system doesn't allow individual transaction entry, the user will need to create a batch before saving the transactions.
Batch-level Posting – This type of posting allows the user to post one batch at a time from either the Batch Entry window or the Sales Batch Entry window. The first window "Batch Entry" is a CINCH window the second window "Sales Batch Entry" is a Microsoft Dynamics GP window. The following shows which transactions use which window.
Batch Entry window (CINCH) - Prepays, Shipments, Branch Transfers, Bulk Transfers, and Sales Contracts
Sales Batch Entry window (Microsoft Dynamics GP) - Counter Sales, Invoices, Returns, and Sales Orders
When posting a sales batch created in the Sales Batch Entry window, the Receivables Management and Inventory Control (if applicable) records will be updated to reflect the information from the transactions. The General Ledger accounts will be updated, depending on the posting setup selections.
Batch-level posting is optional for some CINCH modules and can be selected in your Extensions Setup window. If you cannot post batches, you will need to contact your system administrator in order to post a batch.
- Grain Series Posting – This type of posting allows users to select and post batches post by series. Available series are Inbound Tickets and Outbound Shipments, only selected batches will be posted. Series posting is performed as a background process, so users can enter, add, edit or delete transactions while posting is underway; however, they can't enter transactions in batches that currently are being posted, that are marked for posting, or that are being edited.
Microsoft Dynamics GP's Series Posting and Master Posting will display batches created using Microsoft Dynamics GP's Sales Batch Entry window allowing the user to post more than one batch at a time.
Posting an Individual Transaction
- Open a CINCH Sales Entry window. (I.e. Invoice Maintenance, Sales Contract Entry, etc.)
- Enter or select a transaction. For new transactions, leave the Batch ID field blank. For existing transactions that were previously entered in a batch, clear the Batch ID field.

A report can be printed in its entirety, or enter range restrictions to print only the range of information specified.

Sales Routines
Statements
The Print CINCH Receivables Statements window is used to print monthly statements. CINCH Sales/Seed statements will provide a statement that lists line item details as well as prepay, deferred and schedule F category balances to provide for a more robust and informative statement for your customer. There is also the option to print separate prepay and deferred statements which can also be sent out to your customers.
- Open the Print Cinch Receivables Statements window.
(Microsoft Dynamics GP >> Tools >> Routines >> Cinch Sales >> Statements)
- Enter or select the Statement ID to print.
- If the statement ID has been printed previously, the Last Printed date will fill in.
- Enter a Description for the statement ID.
- Select to Print Statements or Alignment Form. Print Statements will be marked by default. You might want to print an alignment form before printing the statement to position the forms correctly in the printer
- Enter or select an address to appear on statements. Click the Address ID link to view more information.
- Select a Form from the drop down. The Generic Microsoft Dynamics GP layouts will be provided first, as well as the added CINCH Sales Statements of Line Item, Deferred and Prepay.
Line Item – is very similar to the Microsoft Dynamics GP Statement, however, the line detail with item, quantity, price, etc. is listed before the invoice total. The Deferred and Prepay Balances will be shown on the footer of the statement. The Schedule F Categories will print in the footer of the report, to provide important tax information for the customer.
Deferred – is very similar to the Line Item statement but will only display deferred invoices and will display the due date. This will include deferred invoices when partial payment or credit is applied. The criteria for displaying the invoices are based solely on the due and deferred dates. Application to Deferred Sales Invoices:
- If payment is applied to a deferred invoice it will not be removed from the Deferred Statement Report. Instead it will display as a payment within the report and give the new Deferred Amount.
- If a Return occurs on a deferred invoice the Deferred Statement will reflect the Return and will remain on the report. If the Return is applied to a document number at Return entry the description will reflect it was a Deferred apply rather than Return – Credit.
- If a Prepayment is applied to a deferred invoice the Deferred Statement will also reflect the Prepayment on the report.
- If a Credit Memo or Write Off is applied to a deferred invoice the Deferred Statement will also reflect the Write Off on the report.
- All deferred documents will remain on the report until the due date no longer qualifies it as a deferred document.
Prepay – When the Prepay is selected the "Current Period Balance" and "Current Paid-In-Full options will be selected in the Print For selection list. The Print For field will be locked with these options selected. Prepay Statements will print for any customer that has a Prepay Balance or that has current Prepay Apply activity and a Zero Prepay Balance.
