Wrong unit cost value

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
Dear team,
 
I have detected an inusual behaviour on the Items when the process of:
Create item -> Make a purchase order -> Transfer Shipment between warehouses (both: send & receive) -> the shop sells the product so it's the Sales Invoice.
 
I attack a excel/csv where we can see the Item Ledger Entry or Value Entries too, of the item and the unit cost changes abrupt without a movement(or I can't see it) of change of the price.
 
Any help will be really good.
 
PD: I saw a similar post but not the same here: Similar post
 
Answer or reply me on DM,
 
Sincerely Albert.

    Namaste Albert ,
     
    Costing is deep concept . It works on costing methods . 
     
     
    To ensure you get a valid costing , hope necessary report  , setups are configured 
     
    Inventory Setup 
    If you dont want to change your unit cost , and costing to be posted . Do the setup 
     
     
    System gets unit cost on below formula in value entry 
    Unit cost = (sum of Cost Amount Expected)+(Sum of Cost Amount Actual) / (Sum of  Item Ledger Entry Quantity )
     
    You can apply formula  in your excel and check . If you dont want unit cost to be updated then follow below step
    Ensure if you need cost to be adjusted then below repot to be run . This will impact Value entry
     
    Post inventroy Cost to Gl . This will impact costing in General Ledger Entry 

    ** Note do above in sandbox for one item and confrim with client its meeting as per requirements .
     
    If you feel this helped , please verify the answer .
