Different inventory models for different items groups in same legal entity possible?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 270

In a project I have got the question if it possible to combine different inventory models for different kind of item model groups?

For example

  • In Legal Entity A the inventory model is Moving average for one item model group
  • The same legal entity would like to add item in an item model group that will have the inventory model of FIFO

Can it be possible to have and manage this 2 different inventory models in the same legal entity?

Thank you in advance for your kind helt

    Hello Andre!

    Thank you for this clarification. I am an accountant myself and this customer is also aware about the differences in the inventory setup and item model group. As a consultant I want the customer to be aware about what will happen when they decide what model to go for. The decision in these cases are always a business decision from my point of view, but I need the customer to be aware of the outcome/process they want to make :-)

    Hi Kristina,

    Like mentioned by Billur, this is possible to do. The inventory model is specified on the item model group which gives you the freedom to do the setup as per your question. It would be recommended to discuss this carefully with the customer and let them understand the differences. In addition, a confirmation from their accountant would be good to have a full alignment.
