Reply Contact We are multinational company considering moving away from costly SAP, before making this decision I need to know how AX handles frequent changes of cost?  With frequent currency changes and supplier cost mark down, we always have cost down (or up) before receiving purchase order invoices.

  Re: How does Dynamics AX handle cost changes? Reply Contact   Dynamics can be configured to either use standard cost (specified for each item)  or receipt cost. If standard cost is used the cost upon receipt is deducted from the Standard cost used and the difference posted as either profit or loss. If you are not using standard cost Axapta post items at the current receipt price, at the end of a given period issue transactions are value adjusted based on the rules outlined for the given item. Hoped that helped in answering the question. If not let me know.
