Cost Changes Well After Invoicing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello, I have a question.  We did a cost roll on some items and now we are seeing minimal charges hitting our GL for invoices that were sent out over a month ago.   We currently have Automatic Cost Adjustment set to always.  Average Cost Cal Type set to item.  Average Cost Period set to Day.  My question is do we have a setting or something "turned on" in NAV that would cause this issue or possibly when we do the cost roll we are causing this issue with something we are doing?  Is there anyone that can point me in the direction of what might cause this and how we can resolve the issue?

Thank you!

    Hello,

    When you say 'see minimal charges hitting our GL' what exactly do you mean? Are you not seeing the Post Purchase Invoice side of the inbound Inventory or Posted Sales Invoice side with COGS and reduction of Inventory? Can you give an example more information.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    So, what hit the G/L this month seems to be the amounts that were used in the cost roll.  So, say item x was invoiced in January and shipped.  Then, we did a cost roll in February.  In February, we are seeing the small amounts that were entered for the cost roll.  Is this due to the "always" being selected in Automatic Cost Adjustments?  If so, if we changed the always to something else what ramifications would there be?

    Hello,

    Changing the Automatic Cost Adjustment will not alter what is occurring. Based on what you wrote let me use this example, note I am assuming you are Standard Cost and using the Standard Cost Worksheet to roll-up cost:

    January Sale:

    Item X - Cost 10.00

    Sold - Credit Inventory 10.00 / Debit COGS - 10.00

    February 1 - Cost Roll-up for Item X, to reflect 10.10 Cost. You run the Standard Cost Roll-ups and implement. This will look at on-hand quantity and book an incremental entry for the .10 cents. So if I had 10 on-hand, I would get an entry for 1.00 debit Inventory Credit Inventory Adjustment.

    Is this what you are seeing?

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Steve
