The Transfer Shop Floor Invoice Variance process transfers the invoice variance from your specific adjustment account (See: Defining WIP Accounting Classes) to the maintenance Work Orders. This process generates account distribution entries that add the invoice variance amount back to the maintenance Work Order WIP accounts. This transfer executes for one organization, and one adjustment account at a time. For each execution, the process creates a unique batch number.

When the process completes successfully, you can generate the Shop Floor Invoice Variance Report to view your transfer details (See: Shop Floor Invoice Variance Report). Each execution completed by the transfer process is identified by a batch id number, generated by the process itself.

The accounting distribution created by the process is as follows:
