    Hi,

    If you open the voucher then you can drill down to the source document that will open the journal where the transaction was created.

    Hi Ludwig

    I didn't get the exactly information but it's help for now

    another question

    In quality order there's a Destructive Test check if we check the quantity will deleted from warehouse

    but in financial this quantity have value and it's posting to  account that we selected in posting "Inventory, inventory loss"

    also if i make inventory closing the different will be in the same account right ?

    so can i make  "Destructive Test"  posting to another account ?

    Hi,

    That's right that the destructive tests and the adjustments that are posted during inventory close use the same inventory loss account. Do you have the chance to specify a separate financial dimension while doing the destructive test? That's the only chance you have to separate those posting from a financial perspective. If that's not possible you would have to make use of BI tools for your analysis.

    Best regards

    Hi Abdalrahman Mohammed,

    Yeah, I would say that you need BI tools for this analysis.

    Not sure if the standard cubes provide this level of detail.

    So, please check them and if required enhance them.

    Best regards,

    Hello Dr

    BI tools is not helpful

    however about inventory lose only destructive test accounting on it or there's another process use inventory lose account ?

    Hi Abdalrahman Mohammed,

    the inventory loss account is used for a number of transactions, such as for posting inventory adjustment and inventory counting journals. Also the inventory closing process makes use of it. So, there is a mix of different transactions recorded on those accounts.

    I think you best option to separate those costs is the use of a financial dimension that can be specified in the respective tab of the quality order. Other than that you only have the BI option or the option to track those costs/transactions outside of the system.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Abdalrahman Mohammed,

    You can either use Power BI or the AX2012 Standard cubes.

    Information on Power BI can be found here: powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us

    Some info on the AX2012 Standard cubes can be found on TechNet. For details, please see: technet.microsoft.com/.../dd309683.aspx
