    RE: Adjust cost

    Hi,

    With Expected Cost Posting to G/L ‘enabled’:

    When we use the “Post > Receive” action on a Purchase Order, NAV posts entries to the expected/interim accounts in the General Ledger based on the $ amounts that we have entered on the Purchase Order lines.

    Later, when the invoice arrives, we use the “Post > Invoice” action on the same Purchase Order, and NAV reverses the expected entries in the G/L, and books the final entries to the appropriate G/L accounts. If the amounts in the Purchase Line have been changed / updated because the vendor has charged more or less than originally anticipated, the final entries posted to the G/L use these amounts.

    With Expected Cost Posting to G/L ‘disabled’:

    No entries are posted to the expected/interim accounts in the General Ledger when goods are received. NAV only posts entries to the General Ledger when we get the invoice from the vendor and use the “Post > Invoice” action on the Purchase Order.

    Note: If we use Expected Cost Posting, we must have the appropriate requisite G/L accounts selected in the Posting Setups in NAV.
